Lyrics
My own love said to me
My mother won't mind
And my father won't slight you
For your lack of kind
And he made his way to me
And this he did say
It will not be long, love
'Til our wedding day
He made his way to me
As he moved through the fair
And slowly I watched him
Move here and move there
He made his way homeward
With one star awake
Like the swan in the evening
Moves over the lake
People were saying
No two e'er were wed
But one has a sorrow
That never was said
And I smiled as he passed with
His goods and his gear
And that was the last that
I saw of my dear
Last night he came to me
My true love came in
So softly he entered
His feet made no din
He knelt close beside me
And this he did say
It will not be long, love
'Til our wedding day
