Michael TippettEarly One Morning Lyrics
Early one morning, just as the sun was rising
I heard a maid sing in the valley below
"Oh, don't deceive me, oh, never leave me
How could you use a poor maiden so?"
Remember the vows that you gave to your Mary
Remember the bow'r where you vowed to be true
"Oh, don't deceive me, oh, never leave me
How could you use a poor maiden so!"
"O gay is thе garland and are the roses
I'vе culled from the garden to bind on thy brow
O don't deceive me, O do not leave me!
How could you use a [poor]1 maiden so?"
Thus sung the poor maiden, her sorrow bewailing
Thus sung the poor maid in the valley below;
"O don't deceive me! O do not leave me!
How could you use a poor maiden so?"
