My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower
Song
1. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower,
A blacksmith asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the blacksmith is like a sack of coal.
I will not go to him.
2. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower.
A weaver asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the weaver is like a pickaxe,
I will not go to him.
3. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower.
A raven asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the raven, his pants are dirty,
I will not go to him.
4. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower.
A servant asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the servant is like an open rose,
I will go to him.
A blacksmith asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the blacksmith is like a sack of coal.
I will not go to him.
2. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower.
A weaver asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the weaver is like a pickaxe,
I will not go to him.
3. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower.
A raven asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the raven, his pants are dirty,
I will not go to him.
4. My daughter, my daughter, my lily of the valley, my garden flower.
A servant asks you, will you go to him?
Oh, my mother, the servant is like an open rose,
I will go to him.
