  I was young and lusty, I was fair and clear; I was young and lusty, Many a long year. Sair fail’d hinny, Sair fail’d now; Sair fail’d hinny, Sin’ I kend thou. When I was young and lusty, I could loup a dyke; But now at five and sixty, Cannot do the like. Sair fail’d hinny, Sair fail’d now, Sair fail’d hinny, Sin’ I kend thou. Then said the awd man To the oak tree; Sair fail’d is ’e, Sin’ I kend thee. Sair fail’d hinny, Sair fail’d now; Sair fail’d hinny, Sin’ I kend thou. |
