filigree - banks of the lea كلمات أغنية

when first in this country, a stranger
curiosity caused me to run
over europe, i resolved to be a ranger
when i left philadelphia, my home
we quickly sailed over to england
where forms of grey beauty do shine
and there i spied a young woman
and i wished in my heart she was mine
’twas there that i spied this young woman
she appeared like some goddess to me
as she rose from the reeds by the water
on the green mossy banks of the lea

i stepped up and bid her good morning
and her cheeks, they did flush like a rose
says i “how the river looks charming
and your guardian i’ll be if you choose”
she said “sir, i ne’er need a guardian
young man, you’re a stranger to me
and yonder’s my father a_running
on the green mossy banks of the lea”

i waited till upcame her father
saying “your daughter a lady shall be”
she rided a carriage in dorset
on the green mossy banks of the lea
so now this american stranger
old pastime and leisure he can see
he’ll live with his handsome young woman
on the green mossy banks of the lea

so all you young women, attention
no matter how poor you may be
just think on this handsome young woman
on the green mossy banks of the lea
