  • 作曲 : Traditional
    The trees they grow high, the leaves they do grow green
    Many is the time my true love
    I've seenMany an hour
    I have watched him all alone
    He's young, but he's daily growing
    Father, dear father, you've done me great wrong
    You have married me to a boy who is too young
    I'm twice twelve and he is but fourteen
    He's young, but he's daily growing
    Daughter, dear daughter,
    I've done you no wrong
    I have married you to a great lord's son
    He'll be a man to you when
    I am dead and gone
    He's young, but he's daily growing
    Father, dear father, if you see fit
    We'll send him to college for another year yet
    I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head
    To let the maidens know that he's married
    One day I was looking o'er my father's castle wall
    I spied all the boys a-playing at the ball
    My own true love was the flower of them all
    He's young, but he's daily growing
    At the age of fourteen, he was a married man
    At the age of fifteen, the father of a son
    At the age of sixteen, on his grave the grass was green
    Cruel death had put an end to his growing
    I'll buy my love some flannel and
    I will make a shroud
    With every stitch
    I put in it, the tears they will pour down
    With every stitch
    I put in it, how the tears will flow
    Cruel fate has put an end to his growing
