Generate meaning
1
The trees, they grow high and the leaves, they do grow green
2
Many is the time my true love I've seen
3
Many an hour I watched him all alone
4
He's young but he's daily growing
5
Father, dear father, you've done me great wrong
6
You have married me to a boy who is too young
7
I am twice twelve and he is but fourteen
8
He's young but he's daily growing
9
Daughter, dear daughter, I've done you no wrong
10
I have married you to a great Lord's son
11
And he will be a man for you when I am dead and gone
12
He's young but he's daily growing
13
Father, dear father, if you see fit
14
We'll send him to college for another year yet
15
I'll tie a blue ribbon all around his head
16
To let the maidens know that he is married
17
One day I was looking over my father's castle wall
18
I spied all the boys playing with a ball
19
And my own true love, he was the flower of them all
20
He's young but he's daily growing
21
And so early in the morning at the dawning of the day
22
They went into a hayfield for to have some sport and play
23
And what they did there she never would declare
24
But she never more complained of his growing
25
At the age of fourteen he was a married man
26
At the age of fifteen, the father of my son
27
At the age of sixteen, his grave, it was green
28
And death had put an end to his growing
29
I'll buy my love some flannel, I'll make my love a shroud
30
And every stitch I put in it, the tears, they'll pour down
31
And every stitch I put in it, how the tears, they will flow
32
Cruel fate has put an end to his growing
