Songtext von Searching For Lambs

as i went out one may morning one may morning betide i met a maid from home had strayed just as the sun did shine what makes you rise so soon, my dear your journey to pursue? your pretty little feet they tread so sweet strike off the morning dew i'm going to feed my father's flock his young and tender lambs that over hills and over dales lie waiting for their dams o stay! o stay! you handsome maid and rest a moment here for there is none but you alone that i do love so dear how gloriously the sun doth shine how pleasant is the air i'd rather rest on a true love's breast than any other where for i am thine and thou art rnine no man shall uncomfort thee we'll join our hands in wedded bands and a-married we will be
