作曲 : Traditional
This pretty young maid
I seek far and wide
My heartache each morn
with her I don't meet
when I go to the bar
the dance hall or fete
But I'd follow her trail
in the dead of the night
Now you're the young man
that travels afar
Find me a gem
I can have as my wife
Never yearn or pine
for flocks or for kine
And I'll conjure plan
that will charm her life

Have her youthful and fair
with no worry or care
Patient and wise
in affairs of all kind
Modest and mild
without too much pride
That is my love
if she hadn't a dime
Now you're the young man
that travels afar
Find me a gem
I can have as my wife
Never yearn or pine
for flocks or for kine
And I'll conjure plan
that will charm her life

Let no blemish or shame
be attached to her name
Honest in heart
and gentle in mien
No hatred or vice
to be heard in her voice
But cheerful and smiling
from morning 'til night
Now you're the young man
that travels afar
Find me a gem
I can have as my wife
Never yearn or pine
for flocks or for kine
And I'll conjure plan
that will charm her life

And I'll charm her life
