| [00:27.518] | 'Twas down in yon valley a fair maid did dwell, |
| [00:36.816] | She lived with her uncle, they all knew full well, |
| [00:40.674] | 'Twas down in yon valley where violets grew gay, |
| [00:44.873] | Three gypsies betrayed her and stole her away. |
| [00:49.177] | Long time she'd been missing, and could not be found; |
| [00:53.057] | Her uncle, he searched the country around, |
| [00:57.264] | Till he came to the trustee, between hope and fear, |
| [01:01.320] | The trustee made answer, "She has not been here." |
| [01:05.392] | The trustee spoke over with courage so bold, |
| [01:09.664] | "I fear she's been lost for the sake of her gold, |
| [01:13.639] | So we'll have life for life, sir," the trustee did say, |
| [01:17.775] | "We'll send you to prison, and there you shall stay." |
| [01:21.903] | There was a young squire that loved her so, |
| [01:25.918] | Oft times to the schoolhouse together they did go, |
| [01:29.894] | "I'm afraid she's been murdered, so great is my fear. |
| [01:34.029] | If I'd wings like a dove I would fly to my dear." |
| [01:46.228] | He traveled through England, through France and through Spain, |
| [01:50.404] | Till he ventured his life on the watery main, |
| [01:54.700] | And he came to a house where he lodged for a night, |
| [01:58.356] | And in that same house was his own heart's delight. |
| [02:02.525] | When she saw him, she knew him, and fled to his arms; |
| [02:06.745] | She told him her grief while he gazed on her charms. |
| [02:10.855] | "How came you to Dublin, my dearest, I pray?" |
| [02:14.968] | "Three gypsies betrayed me and stole me away." |
| [02:18.977] | "Your uncle's in England, in prison does lie, |
| [02:23.128] | And for your sweet sake is condemned for to die." |
| [02:27.143] | "Carry me to old England, my dearest," she cried. |
| [02:31.303] | "One thousand I'll give thee, and will be your bride." |
| [02:35.198] | When they came to old England her uncle to see, |
| [02:39.367] | The cart it was under the high gallows tree; |
| [02:43.545] | "Oh, pardon, oh, pardon, oh, pardon I crave. |
| [02:47.663] | I'm alive, I'm alive, your dear life to save." |
| [02:51.687] | Then from the high gallows they led him away, |
| [02:55.975] | The bells they did ring and the music did play, |
| [02:59.837] | Every house in that valley with mirth did resound, |
| [03:04.294] | As soon as they heard the lost lady was found. |
| [03:10.310] | Lost lady was found |
| [03:14.437] | Lost lady was found |
