Here's the words as set by Beethoven:When will you come again, My faithful Johnnie,
When will you come again?
"When the corn is gathered,
and the leaves are withered,
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie,
I will come again."
Then winter's winds will blow, my faithful Johnny,
Then winter's winds will blow.
"Though the day be dark with drift,
that I cannot see the lift,
I will come again, my sweet and bonnie,
I will come again."
Then will you meet me here, my faithful Johnny,
Then will you meet me here?
"Though the night be halloween,
When the fearful sights are seen,
I would meet thee here,my sweet and bonnie,
I would meet thee here!"
