Now once I loved with a fond affection
One whose heart was dear to me
Till there came such a dreary parting
Now he no longer speaks to me
So go and leave me if you wish to,
never let me cross your mind.
If you think I have been unworthy,
go and leave me, I don't mind.
Many's the night in peaceful slumber,
You have laid in sweet re pose,
While I, a young girl,
broken -hearted,
Listening to the wind that blows.
Oh, go and leave me if you wish to
Never let me cross your mind
If you think I have been unworthy
Go and leave me, I don't mind
Here is the ring that once you gave me
When our lips they were en twined
Give it to that fair head lady
She'll never know that it once was mine
So go and leave me if you wish to,
never let me cross your mind.
If you think I have been unworthy,
go and leave me, I don't mind. you
