Shall we follow everywhere, Till we reach the village fair, Let us run, we'll soon be there; Oh, hear the fiddler playing; We're going to the Maying. Then we must before we go, Take a branch from off the sloe, Fairest blossom, white as snow; Oh, hear the fiddler playing, We're off to join the Maying.
