Come on, you fair and tender maiden Be carefull how you court young men They´re like the stars On a summer´s morning First they appear and then they´re gone
If only I were a tiny sparrow And I had wings And could fly so high I´d fly away To my false lover There I´d stay Until he loves like fire
But as I am No tiny sparrow And have no wings So I can´t fly I´ll fly away To a lonesome valley Wings that pass my troubles by Wings that pass my troubles by
