Subject: Lyr Req: Soet Roosie Root
In 1971 Pat Shaw wrote English dances to several Dutch songs. These were published in a book called New Wine in Old Bottles.
Are the words to these songs on line anywhere? Preferably in English Translation.
The ones I am looking for particularly (I'm calling the dances tonight) are -
Soet Roosie Root (Sweet Rosie Red)
Meiplanting (Planting the May)
De Haaghse Meij (May in the Hague)
