They came down from the mound They exchanged to on from the fountain And all the while All the while they longed for us
But I won´t betray you I won´t betray you I won´t betray you I won´t No I won´t betray you No I won´t betray you No I won´t betray you I won´t Till the water´s all gone
And you, my sweet flower And how you grew more sweet by the hour And love was I Love was I to lose you My tender rose My limber rose My slender loving daughter My tender rose
My limber rose My slender loving daughter
Till the water´s all gone
They came down from the mound They exchanged to on from the fountain Oh my girl, oh my love I´ve lost you
But I won´t betray you I won´t betray you I won´t betray you I won´t No I won´t betray you No I won´t betray you No I won´t betray you I won´t Till the water´s all gone
