作曲 : Traditional
It was down by the Salley Gardens my love and I did meet.
She crossed the Salley Gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me to take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree.
But I was young and foolish and with her would not agree.
In a field by the river my love and I did stand.
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me to take life easy as the grass grows on the weirs.
But I was young and foolish and now I am full of tears.
Down by the Salley Gardens my love and I did meet.
She crossed the Salley Gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me to take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree.
But I was young and foolish and with her would not agree.
