As I walked out one May morning
One May morning betime
I met a maid who from home was strayed
Just as the sun did shine
"What makes you rise so soon, my dear
Your journey to pursue?
Your pretty little feet, they step so sweet
Strike off the morning dew"
"I'm going to feed my father's flock
His young and tender lambs
That o'er vales and over dales
Lie waiting for their dams"
"Oh stay, oh stay, you handsome maid
And rest a moment here
Oh, there is none but you alone
That I do love so dear"
"How gloriously the sun do shine
How pleasant is the air
I'd rather rest on a true love's breast
Than any other where"
"For I am thine and thou art mine
No man shall uncomfort thee
We'll both join hands in wedded bands
And married we shall be"
As I walked out one May morning
One May morning betime
I met a maid who from home was strayed
Just as the sun did shine
