One morning I rambled down by the seashore The wind it did whistle, and the waters did roar 
I heard a fair maiden make a pitiful sound It sounded so lonesome in the waters around 
I never will marry, I’ll be no man’s wife I expect to live single all the days of my life 
My love’s gone and left me, he’s the one I adore He’s gone where I never will see him any more 
The shells in the ocean shall be my deathbed The fish in deep waters swim over my head 
Then she plunged her fair body in the water so deep She closed up her blue eyes, forever to sleep
