If I were a minstrel I¡¯d sing you six love songs,
|
To tell the whole world of the love that we share,
|
If I were a merchant I¡¯d bring you six diamonds,
|
With six blood red roses for my love to wear,
|
|
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer,
|
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair,
|
Yellow and brown, blue as the sky,
|
Red as my blood, green as your eyes,
|
|
If I were a nobleman I¡¯d bring you six carriages,
|
With six snow white horses to take you anywhere,
|
If I were the emperor I¡¯d build you six palaces,
|
With six hundred servants for comforting fare,
|
|
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer,
|
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair,
|
|
If I were a minstrel I¡¯d sing you six love songs,
|
To tell the whole world of the love that we share,
|
So be not afraid my love, you¡¯re never alone love,
|
While you wear my ribbons tying back your hair,
|
|
Once I was a simple man, a poor common farmer,
|
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair,
|
Too-ra-lee, too-ra-lie, all I can share,
|
Is only six ribbons to tie back your hair,
|
Too-ra-lee, too-ra-lie, all I can share,
|
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair.
