Traditional | |
A pretty young girl all in the month of May, | |
A gathering rushes just at the break of day, | |
But before she's come home she has bore a little son, | |
And she rolled him underneath her aperon. | |
Well, she cried on the threshold and she come in at the door, | |
And she folded in her aperon that pretty babe she bore, | |
Says her father: "Where you been, my pretty daughter Jane, | |
And what's that you got underneath your aperon ?" | |
"Father, dear father, it's nothing," then says she, | |
"It's only my new gown and that's too long for me, | |
And I was afraid it would draggle in the dew, | |
So I rolled it underneath my aperon." | |
In the dead of the night when all were fast asleep, | |
This pretty little baby, oh, it began to weep. | |
"O what's that little babe that is crying out so shrill | |
In the bedroom among the pretty maidens?" | |
"O father, dear father, it's nothing then," said she. | |
"It's just a little bird that my sister gave to me | |
And build for it a nest and I'll warm it on my breast, | |
So it don't wake you early in the May morning." | |
In the last part of the night, when they were fast asleep, | |
This pretty little baby again begin to weep. | |
"Oh, what's that little babe that's crying out so clear | |
In the bedroom among the pretty maidens?" | |
"O father, dear father, it's nothing then" said she, | |
"It's just a little baby that someone gave to me. | |
Let it lie, let it sleep this night along o' me, | |
And l'll tell to you its daddy in the May morning." | |
"Oh, was it by a black man or was it by a brown, | |
Or was it by a ploughing-boy a-ploughing up and down, | |
That gave you the stranger you wear with your new gown, | |
That you rolled up underneath your aperon ?' | |
"lt wasn't by a black man and it wasn't by a brown. | |
It was by a sailor lad that ploughs the watery main. | |
lt was him gave me the stranger I wear with my new gown, | |
That I rolled it underneath my aperon." | |
"Oh, was it in the kitchen got, or was it in the hall? | |
Was it in the cow-shed or up against the wall? | |
I wish I had a firebrand to burn the building down | |
Where you met with him on a May morning." | |
"It wasn't in the kitchen got, it wasn't in the hall. | |
It wasn't in the cow-shed nor up again the wall. | |
It was down by yonder spring where them little birds do sing | |
That I met with him on a May morning." |
