Текст песни: Bonny Greenwoodside + перевод

She’s leaned her back against an oak,

All alone and a’lonely O',

She’s pushed, and pushed till her back’s nearly broke.

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.

She’s laid her head against a thorn,

All alone and a’lonely O',

The two bonniest babes that ever were born. Down in the bonny greenwood side

e-o.

She’s went back to her fathers castle hall,

All alone and a’lonely O'

She-e was the smallest maid of them all.

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.

She looks over her father’s castle wall,

All alone and a’lonely O',

Two bonny babies a' playin' at a ball.

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.

O, dear babies if you were mine,

All alone and a’lonely O',

I’d give you bread, and I’d give you wine.

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.

O Dear Mother, when we were thine,

All alone and a’lonely O',

‘Round our necks you pulled the twine.

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.

Now we are in the heaven so High,

All alone and a’lonely O',

And in hells fires you will die.

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.

Only a mother that’s ever lost a child,

All alone and a’lonely O',

Knows the grief the heart’s open (wide?).

Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
