The Mermaid

Farewell the rolling hills

And farewell to the fields

Farewell love, my fate tonight is sealed

On the sea love, on the sea

High are the daunting waves

And bold the wind it blows

And I can see love, the mermaid and she knows

On the sea love, on the sea

And peace as the sea it comes

And peace now in her arms

Where are we love?

Sleeping in the sea

My father built a bonny ship

And set her on the sea

It was his joy love, he gave that ship to me

On the sea love, on the sea

On oceans high and oceans low

We sailed that ship around

We owned the tide love

On the sea love, on the sea

And peace now the sea it comes

And peace now in her arms

Where are we love?

Sleeping in the sea

And three times the ship went round

And three times round went she

Its murky deep love, and far away from ye

On the sea love, on the sea

Farewell the rolling hills

And farewell to the fields

Farewell love, my fate tonight is sealed

On the sea love, on the sea

And peace now the sea it comes

And peace now in her arms

Where are we love?

Sleeping in the sea

It's where I'll be love-

Sleeping in the sea
