She Moved Through the Fair

My own love said to me
My mother won't mind
And my father won't smite you
For your lack of kind
She went away from me
And this she did say
It will not be long
Til our wedding day
She went away from me
And she moved through the fair
And slowly I watched her
Move here and move there
She went her way home ward
With one star away
As the swan in the evening
Moves over the way
I dreamed last night
That my own love came in
She came and so sweetly
Her feet made no din
She came close beside me
And this, this she did say
It will not be long love
Til our wedding day
