the trees they do grow high - øxn (ire) lyrics
the trees they grow high, the leaves they do grow green
many is the time, my true love i’ve seen
many an hours, i have watched him all alone
he’s young but he’s daily growing
father, dear father, you’ve done me great wrong
you have married me to a boy who is too young
i’m twice twelve and he is but fourteen
he’s young but he’s daily growing
daughter, dear daughter, i’ve done you no wrong
i have married you to a great lord’s son
he’ll make for you a lord to wait upon
hе’s young but he’s daily growing
one day i was looking o’er my fathеr’s wall
i spied all the boys as playing with the ball
my own true love, the flower of them all
he’s young but he’s daily growing
at the age of fourteen, he was a married man
at the age of fifteen, the father to a son
at the age of sixteen, his grave it was green
and death put an end to his growing
