Litlle Boy, Little Boy
Little boy, Little boy, where are you going
I am going to the pond where the lillies grow
Little boy, Little boy, where are you going
The river is high, you must not go
Little girl, little girl, why are you crying
He is gone to the pond, and won't come home
Little girl, little girl, why are you crying
The river flows one way and only news come home
Farewell, little brother, farewell, alas
Father brings home body found in the grass
Farewell, little brother, farewell, alas
Yes on the water you were roving the pass
Little girl, little girl, where are you going
I am going to the pond where the lillies grow
Little girl, little girl, where are you going
Twins we play together, so I must go.
