"Oh, lovely young maid, oh, beautiful girl
C D G
Why stand you here, but all alone

Will you be my own dearest wife
G C
And come with me home for the rest of your life"
[VERSE 3:]

"Your dearest wife I surely will be

If you will fetch for me, roses three

Three roses so new, they grow this year

But stand so strong on their own root"

Well, if you are in there, pray come out to me

Three roses so new, they grow this year

Three roses I bring to you this day"
