Moved Through The Fair

My young love said to me
My mother won't mind
And my father won't slight you
For your lack of kind
She stepped away from me
And this she did say
"It will not be long love
Till our wedding day"

She went away from me
And she moved through the fair
And fondly I watched her move here
And move there
And she went her way homeward
With one star awake
As the swan in the evening
Moved o'er the lake

Last night I did dream
That my love came in
And so quietly she entered
That her feet made no din
And she laid her hands on me
And this she did say
"It will not be long love
Till our wedding day"
