   One morning, one morning, one morning in May
  I spied a young couple, they were making their way
  One was a maiden so bright and so fair
  And the other was a soldier and a brave volunteer
  
  Good morning, good morning, good morning said he
  And where are you going my pretty lady
  I'm goig out a walkin on the banks of the sea
  Just to see the waters gliding hear the nightingale sing
  
  Now they had not been standing but a minute or two
  And out of his knapsack a fiddle he drew
  And the tune that he played made the valleys all ring
  Oh hark cried the maiden hear the nightingale sing
  
  Oh maiden fair maiden tis time to give o'er
  Oh no kind soldier please play one tune more
  For I'd rather hear your fiddle at the touch of one string
  Than to see the waters gliding hear the nightingale sing
  
  Oh soldier kind soldier will you marry me
  Oh no pretty maiden that never shall be
  I've a wife in London and children twice three
  Two wives and the army's too many for me
  
  Well I'll go back to London and I'll stay there for a year
  It's often that I'll think of you my little dear
  And if ever I return it will be in the spring
  Just to see the waters gliding hear the nightingale sing
  To see the waters gliding hear the nightingale sing
