I Would Like Spring to Come
I would like spring to come,
To turn green the meadow!
I would like spring to come,
To turn green the meadow!
To go with my sweetheart to the floodplain,
To hear with her the cuckoo singing.
Come with me, sweetheart, to the floodplain,
I will make a reel and a distaff for you.
Come with me, sweetheart, to the floodplain,
I will make a reel and a distaff for you.
At the end of the seedbed,
You will pay for the reel.
But when we reach the midway,
Lie down on the meadow.
When we reach the midway,
Lie down on the meadow.
You will count the stars,
I will count your beads.
You will count the stars,
I will count your beads.

Play for Me, Old Fiddler
Versions: #1
Please play for me one of your songs,
The strings to cry in your hands,
I have no gold, I’ll give you wine,
My coat and all that’s mine.
I have no gold, I’ll give you wine,
My coat and all that’s mine.
Please play for me one of your songs,
Please use your old guitar,
Old fiddler please, I want to hear,
The music through my tear.
Old fiddler please, I want to hear,
The music through my tear.
Please play for me, play from your heart,
The story of my love,
To soothe my longing for a day,
and happy fly away.
To soothe my longing for a day,
and happy fly away.
Please let me stay next to my cup,
To drink my pain, my sorrow,
I have no home I have no friends,
Today my journey ends.
I have no home I have no friends,
Today my journey ends.
Please let me stay in this dark pub,
To hear the silence crying,
To drink, to cry, but no regret,
My love, I won’t forget.
To drink, to cry, but no regret,
My love, I won’t forget.
