The trees they grow high,
And the leaves grow green
Many is the time my true love I've seen
Many day hours I've watched him all alone
He's young, and he's daily growing

Father, dear father,
You've done me great wrong
You have married me to a boy who is too young
I'm twice twelve and he is but fourteen
He's young, and he's daily growing

Daughter, my daughter,
I've done you no wrong
I have married you to a rich man's son
You make a lord for you to way to born
He's young, and he's daily growing

At the age of sixteen, he was a married man
At the age of seventeen, the father of a son
And at the age of eighteen, grass grew over him
Cruel death put an end to his growing

The trees they grow high,
And the leaves grow green
Many is the time my true love I've seen
Many day hours I've watched him all alone
He's young, and he's daily growing
