1
It was in the merry month of May
2
When green bugs were a-swelling
3
Sweet William on his death bed lay
4
For the love of Barbriallen
5
He sent his servant to the town
6
The place where she'd been dwelling
7
Say master dear has sent me here
8
If your name be Barbriallen
9
And slowly, slowly she got up
10
And slowly she went to him
11
And all she said when she got there
12
Young man I think you are dying
13
Oh, don't you remember the other day
14
When we where in a tavern
15
You drank your health to the ladies there
16
And you slided Barbriallen
17
He turned his face unto the wall
18
He turned his back upon her
19
Adieu, adieu to all my friends
20
Be kind to Barbriallen
21
She looked to the east, she looked to the west
22
She saw his corpse a-coming
23
Oh, put him down for me she cried
24
That I may gaze upon him
25
The more she looked, the more she grieved
26
She bursted it out in crying
27
Oh, pick me up and carry me home
28
For I feel like I am dying
29
They buried sweet Willy in the old church yard
30
And Barbara in the new one
31
From Willy's grave there grew a rose
32
From Barbara's a green briar
33
They grew and they grew on the old church wall
34
And could not grow no higher
35
And there they tied in a true love's knot
36
The rose bush and the briar
