ONE NIGHT AS I LAY ON MY BED
One night as I lay on my bed
I dreamed about a pretty maid
I was so distressed, I could take no rest,
Love did torment me so
So away to my true love I did go
But when I came to my love's window,
I boldly called her by her name,
Saying: "It was for your sake I'm come here so late
Through this bitter frost and snow
So it's open the window, my love, do"
"My mum and dad they are both awake,
And they will sure for to hear us speak
There'll be no excuse then but sore abuse,
Many a bitter word and blow
So begone from my window, my love, do"
"Your mum and dad they are both asleep,
And they are sure not to hear us speak,
For they're sleeping sound on their bed of down
And they draw their breath so low
So open the window, my love, do!"
My love arose and she opened the door,
And just like an angel she stood on the fioor
Her eyes shone bright like the stars at night,
And no diamonds could shine so
So in with my true love I did go
