alasdair roberts, amble skuse & david mcguinness - long a-growing كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
the trees they are ivied the leaves have turned to green
and all the days are gone that you and i have seen
[?] in the cold winter’s night
but my bonnie boy is long, long a-growing

“oh faither, dear faither you’ve done me muckle wrong
for you have wedded me to a lad that’s [?] young
for he is but twelve and i am near fourteen
oh my bonnie boy is long, long a-growing”

“oh daughter, dear daughter, i have not done you wrong
for i have wedded you to a n0ble lord’s son
and he will be the one that you will wait upon
and all the time your lad will be a-growing”

“oh daughter, dear daughter, now if you think it fit
we’ll send him to the school for a year or two yet
and we’ll tie a ribbon green round his bonnie bonnet blue
just to let the lady’s know that he’s married”

“oh faither, dear faither, now if you would be pleased
i’d like to go along with him dressed up in laddie’s claithes
[?] and my hair cut to my brow
and i’ll watch my bonnie laddie while he’s growing”

[verse 2]
i looked o’er the college wall and there i seen them all
all the young collegians playing at the ball
and o my bonnie boy he’s the youngest one of all
so i thought he was a long time a-growing

at the age of twelve years he was a married man
at the age of thirteen years he had gotten her a son
at the age of fourteen years the gr-ss had grew so green
cruel death had put an end to his growing
