Down By The Sally Gardens Lyrics - The Wind That Shakes The Barley - Loreena Mckennitt

It was down by the salley gardens 

My love and I did meet 

She crossed the salley gardens 

With little snow-white feet 

She bid me to take life easy 

As the leaves grow on the tree 

But I was young and foolish 

And with her I did not agree 

In a field down by the river 

My love and I did stand 

And upon my leaning shoulder 

She laid her snow-white hand

She bid me take life easy 

As the grass grows on the weirs 

But I was young and foolish 

And now I am full of tears 

It was down by the salley gardens 

My love and I did meet 

She crossed the salley gardens 

With little snow-white feet
