i once loved a lass - shannon lyrics

Loading...

i once loved a l-ss and i loved her sae weel,
i hated all others who spoke of her ill,
but now she’s rewarded me well for my love,
for she’s gaun tae be wed tae another.

i saw my love to the church go,
wi’ bride groom and bride’s maidens, they made a fine
show,
and i followed on wi’ my heart full of woe,
she was goin’ tae be wed tae another.

i saw my love sit doon tae dine,
as i sat doon beside her i poured oot the wine.
i drank tae the l-ssie that should have been mine,
even though she’d been wed tae another.

the men o’ the forest they askit o’ me,
how many strawberries grow in the salt sea?
i answered them all wi’ a tear in my e’e
how many ships sail in the forest?

dig me a grave and dig it sae deep,
and cover me over my head tae my feet,
and i will lie doon and i’ll tak a lang sleep,
and maybe in time i’ll forget her.
