When a man's in love he feels no cold
As I not long ago
As a hero bold to see my girl
I ploughed through frost and snow

And moon she gently shed her light
Along my dreary way
Until at length I came to the spot
Where all my treasure lay.

I knocked on my love's window saying
My dear, are you within?
And softly she undid the latch
So slyly I stepped in.

Her hand was soft and her breath was sweet
And her tongue it did gently glide
I stole a kiss, it was no miss
And I asked her to be my bride.

Oh take me to your chamber love,
Oh take me to your bed
Oh take me to your chamber love
To rest my weary head.

But to take you to my chamber love
My parents would never agree
So sit you down there by yonder fire
And I'll sit close by thee.

Oh many's the time through frost and snow
I've come to visit you
Whether tossed about by cold wintery wine
Or wet by the morning dew

But tonight our courtships at a close
Between you Love and me
So fair you well my own favorite girl
A long fair well to thee

Yes many's the time I've courted you
Against your parent's will
But you've never said you'd be my bride
So now my girl, sit still

Foe tonight I am going to cross the sea
To far off Columbia's shore
And you will never ever see
Your youthful lover more

Oh are you going to leave me now
Oh pray what can I do?
I will break through every bond of home
And come along with you.

I know my parents won't forget
Ah but surely they'll forgive
So from the soul I am resolved
Along with you I will live
