Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Foggy Dew (Irish 2)
Subject: rising of the moon- different words
Does anyone know the name and the rest of the words to this song sung to the tune of the Irish song The Rising of the Moon?

As down the hill I went one morn,
A lovely maid I spied.
Her hair was bright as the dew that fell
All in some velvet ----?

CHORUS: “And where go ye, fair maid?” said I.
She raised her eyes of blue
And smiled and said, “The boy I wed
I’m to meet in the foggy dew.”
