Thread Name: Lyr Req: Sang a Pretty Brooklet
Subject: Pretty Brooklet
I am looking for the origin of a song my great-grandmother used to sing. I would like to obtain the complete words and music if possible. The song begins: "Sang a pretty brooklet, dancing down the dell, I must haste sweet flowers though I love you well. Soon I'll be a river rushing to the sea. What a merry moment that will be for me!"

Anyone with any knowledge of this song, please e-mail me. mary@ift-aft.org

Thanks for your help.
