I went up the mountain.

Song

1. I went up the mountain, ; I looked down at the valley, ; There I saw a mother ; In pure black. ; ; 2. I asked her, ; Where is your daughter, ; Where is your daughter, ; My sweet partner. ; ; 3. She has gone, my son, she has gone, ; She has gone to the forest ; To pick lilies of the valley, ; To weave them into a wreath. ; ; 4. She is not there, she is not there, ; My unknown mother, ; Where is your daughter, ; My sweet partner. ; ; 5. She has gone, my son, she has gone, ; She has gone to the tavern, ; To set the table, ; To receive a guest. ; ; 6. I must confess, ; I must confess, ; She is in the room, ; She lies in a coffin. ; ; 7. The young man went back, ; Let him see what happened, ; He has a knife in his hand, ; He stabs him in the heart. ; ; 8. My blood with your blood ; Let it flow into one stream, ; My body with your body ; Let it rest in one grave. ; ; 9. They are ringing at noon, ; But not at noon, ; Now they are taking two orphans ; Out to the cemetery.
