  • As I roved out one evening fair
    By the verdant braes of Skreen.
    I set my back to a hawthorn tree
    To view the sun in the west country,
    And the dew on the forest green.

    A lad I spied by Abhann's side
    And a maiden by his knee.
    And he was as dark as the very brown wood
    And she all whey and wan to see,
    All whey and wan was she.

    "Oh sit you down on the grass," he said.
    "On the dewy grass so green
    For the wee birds all have come and gone
    Since I my true love have seen," he said.
    "Since I my true love have seen"

    "Then I'll not sit on the grass," she said
    "Nor be a love of thine
    For I hear you love a Connaught girl
    And your heart's no longer mine," she said
    "And your heart's no longer mine."

    "But I will climb a high, high tree
    And I'll rob a wild bird's nest
    And back I'll bring what I find there
    To the arms that I love best," she said
    "To the arms that I love best."
