Charles Hubert Hastings Parry - Proud Maisie - текст песни (слова)

Proud Maisie is in the wood,
 Walking so early,
 Sweet Robin sits on the bush,
 Singing so rarely.
 "Tell me, thou bonny bird,
 When shall I marry me?"
 "When six braw gentlemen
 Kirkward shall carry ye."
 
 "Who makes the bridal bed,
 Birdie, say truly?"
 "The grey-headed sexton
 That delves the grave duly.
 The glow-worm o'er grave and stone
 Shall light thee steady";
 The owl from the steeple sing,
 "Welcome, proud lady."
