COMMENTS: MS learned it from Maggie Pearce, I
think. I
think MP knows another verse beside these.
A
capella
TEXT:
As I was a-walkin' one fine summer's day
Oh, the fields
they were in blossom and the meadows were gay
I met a wee lassie trippin' over the green
I
took her for Helen, the Grec-i-an queen
The Grecian queen, the Grec-i-an queen
I
took her for Helen, the Grec-i-an queen
She's admired by many, I know them right
well
Each morning to view the sweet spot where she dwells
Beneath the downs at the brink
of yonder hill
May she never marry, but think on me still
But think on me still, but
think on me still
May she never marry, but think on me still
Oh, me parents dote
on me, and it's all for their sake
And its ofttimes it causes my poor heart to break
But
the more I think on them, the more I'm inclined to say
There's no one will be mine but the wee
lass on the brae
The wee lass on the brae, the wee lass on the brae
There's no one
will be mine but the wee lass on the brae
So it's fare thee well, me darlin', I love you
the best
And may you be happy, and may you be blessed
And may you think on me when that I
am far away
For there's no one will be mine but the wee lass on the brae
The wee lass
on the brae, the wee lass on the brae
There's no one will be mine but the wee lass on the
brae
In faith there is a decline(?) under yond forest sky
And straightway to my true love
I surely will fly
And ....
And no one will be mine but the wee lass on the brae
The wee lass on the brae, the wee lass on the brae
There's no one will be mine but the wee
lass on the brae
