And who are you, my pretty fair maid
Who are you, my honey?
Who are you, my pretty fair maid
Who are you, my honey?
She answered quite modestly
I am my mammy's darling
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
And will you come to my mammy's house
When the moon is shining clearly?
And will you come to my mammy's house
When the moon is shining clearly?
I'll open the door and let you in
And the devil won't hurt us
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
So I went to the house in the middle of the night
When the moon was shining clearly
So I went to the house in the middle of the night
When the moon was shining clearly
She opened the door and she let me in
And the devil won't hurt us
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
She took my horse by the bridle and the bit
And she led it to the stable
She took my horse by the bridle and the bit
And she led it to the stable
Send us plenty of oats for soldier's horse
To eat it if he's able
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
She took me by her lily-white hand
She led me to the table
She took me by her lily-white hand
She led me to the table
Send us plenty of wine for soldier boy
To drink it if he's able
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
Then I get up and I made the bed
And I made it nice and easy
Then I get up and I made the bed
And I made it nice and easy
Then I get up and laid her down
Said, "Let's see how you're able"
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
And there we laid till the break of the day
And the devil won't hurt us
And there we laid till the break of the day
And the devil won't hurt us
Then I got up and put on my clothes
Said, "Let's see how much sleep you owe"
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
And when will you return again?
When will we get married?
When will you return again?
When will we get married?
When broken shells make Christmas bells
We, my Queen, get married
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
Who are you, my honey?
Who are you, my pretty fair maid
Who are you, my honey?
She answered quite modestly
I am my mammy's darling
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o

When the moon is shining clearly?
And will you come to my mammy's house
When the moon is shining clearly?
I'll open the door and let you in
And the devil won't hurt us
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
Dar-i-fol-diddle-deddy-hee-o
So I went to the house in the middle of the night
When the moon was shining clearly
So I went to the house in the middle of the night
When the moon was shining clearly
She opened the door and she let me in
And the devil won't hurt us
With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die

With me to die, i-fol-diddle-die
