Maire Brennan - She Moved Through The Fair lyrics

My young love said to me: "My mother wont mind
And my father wont slight you for your lack of kind"
And she stepped away from me & this she did say:
"It´ll not be long, love, ´until our wedding day".

She drew away from me & she moved through the fair
And fondly I watched her move here & move there
And she went away homewards with one star awake
Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake.

The people were saying "No two e´er were wed"
But one´s the sorrow that never was said
And she smiled as she passed with her goods & her gear
And that´s the last that I saw of my dear.

Last night she came to me, she came softly in
So softly she came her feet made no din
She layed her hand on me & this she did say:
"It´ll not be long ´until our wedding day".
