BONNIE MOON
(Traditional)

I wandered many a night in June
Upon the banks of Clyde
Beneath the bright and bonnie moon
With Mary by my side

A summer wedding unto my eyes
And to my heart of joy
For well she loved to roam with me
Her Ireland minstrel boy

Her presence stood on every star
Two million fields so clear
I thought the flowers sweeter by far
When they were seen with her

Although her heart was true to me
Her Ireland mintrel boy

I played for ladies fair and gay
In many a southern hall
But there is one far, far away
A world above them all

And though many a weary year has fled
I think with mournful joy
Upon that day when Mary wed
Her Ireland minstrel boy

Collected for the National Library by Rob Willis from Carrie Milliner of the South Coast of NSW. She was from a family of sleeper cutters and traced the song back to her great-grandfather.
