You maidens now pity this sorrowful moan I make I am a yong maiden in grief for my darling sake My true lovers absence in sorrow I grieve full sore And each day I lament for my Jimmy Mó Mhíle Stór Now these twelve months and better my darling has left these shores And he'll never return till he travels the wide world o'er And when he comes back he'll have silver and gold in store He's the truest of lovers my Jimmy Mó Mhíle Stór My father and mother they never will give my head peace Since my true love has left me to sail o'er the stormy seas They would give me a aweetheart with money and flocks and more But my heart o'er the ocean with Jimmy Mó Mhíle Stór I will go to the wild woods and stay there the rest of my days Where no living mortal will suffer my soul to tease And amongst the wild rowans with red berries all drooping o'er And I'll wait for my true love, Yeh, I'll wait for my true love I'll wait for my true love my Jimmy Mó Mhíle Stór |
