He Moved Through The Fair Lyrics - Nana Mouskouri

My young love said to me " My mother won't mind 

And my father won't slight for your lack of kind 

And he stepped away from me and this he did say 

"It will not be long, love, till our wedding day 

He stepped away from me and he went through the fair 

And fondly I watched him move here and move there 

And then he went honward with one star awake 

As the swan in the evening moves over the lake 

The people were saying "No two were e'er wed 

But one had a sorrow that never was said 

And I smile as he passed with his goods and his gear 

And that was the last that I saw of my dear

Last night he came to me, he came softly in 

So softly he came that his feet made no din 

And he laid his hand on me and this he did say 

"It will not be long, love, till our wedding day
