I Wish My Love Was a Red Red Rose歌词
作词 : Traditional
作曲 : Traditional
I wish my love was a red, red rose
Growing in yon garden fair
And I to be the gardener
Of her I would take care
There's not a month throughout the year
But my love I'd renew
I'd garnish her with flowers fine
Sweet William, Thyme and Rue
I wish I was a butterfly
I'd light on my love's breast
And if I was a blue cuckoo
I'd sing my love to rest
And if I was a nightingale
I'd sing to daylight clear
I'd sit and sing with you my Mollie
For once I loved you dear
I wish I was in Dublin town
And sitted on the grass
In my right hand a jug of punch
And on my knee a lass
I'd call for liquor freely
And I'd pay before I'd go
I'd roll my money in my arms
Let the wind blow high or low
