Oh can i go to my love's side
Oh let me go this day
Please let me go to my love's side
Oh mother don't make me stay.
I was a rose in april
And still a rose in june
I fear that come the winter
I shall no longer bloom

Oh daughter daughter you cannot go
Oh you cannot go this day.
Your father he forbade you
And at home you must remain.
You were a rose in april
And still a rose in june
But god can send five winters
And i know my rose will bloom

Mother mother i must away
Unto my true love's side.
Bring to me my white horse
And away to him i'll ride
She's rode through fields of barley
And she's rode throught fields of corn
She's come unto her true love
One hour before the dawn.

Her father being awakened
Heard of his daughter's flight.
He's taken up his dagger
And he's rode into the night.
He's rode through fields of barley
And he's sped through fields of corn.
He's come unto her true love's house
Just before the dawn.

He's found his daughter sleeping
In her true lover's arms.
He's taken up his dagger
And it's deep into their hearts.
Oh father cruel father
You've killed my love killed me
But now i'll rest beside him
Locked in his arms i'll be.
Locked in his arms i'll be
