Текст песни The Broom of the Cowdenknowes

Chorus (after each verse):
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in the north country
Herding his father's ewes

How blithe each morn was I to see
My lad come over the hill
He skipped the burn and ran to me
I met him with good will

We neither herded ewes nor lamb
While the flock near us lay

He gathered in the sheep at nightCherish The Ladies - The Broom of the Cowdenknowes - http://ru.motolyrics.com/cherish-the-ladies/the-broom-of-the-cowdenknowes-lyrics.html
And cheered me all the day

Hard fate that I should banished be
Gone way o'er hill and moor
Because I loved the fairest lad
That ever yet was born

Adieu, ye Cowdenknowes, adieu
Farewell all pleasures there
To wander by his side again
Is all I crave or care

(Chorus 2x)
