Fair young maid all in her garden Stange young man, passerby He said, "Fair maid, will you marry me?" This answer then was her reply: Oh, no, kind sir, I cannot marry thee For I've a love and he sails the sea. Though He's been gone for seven years Still no man shall marry me What if he's in some battle slain Or if he's drownded in the deep salt sea What if he's found another love And he and his love both married be? Well, if he's in some battle slain I will die when they mourn the grave And if he's drowned in the deep salt sea then I'll be true to his memory And if he's found another love And he and his love both married be I wish them health and happiness Where they dwell across the sea He picks her up in his arm so stronge And kisses gave her: One, two, three Saying,weep no more, my own true love Oh,I am your long-lost John Riley! Saying,weep no more, my own true love Oh,I am your long-lost John Riley!
