Select language to translate this lyric
I was strolling down the glen
When I spied a fair young man,
he was asking a favour of the moon.
Ah but yet he was so young
and we were both as one,
'Neath the bright silvery of the moon.
So shine on silvery light,
Shine on through the night
The nightingales are singing their sweet song
For there's not a time so sweet
as when two lovers meet
Neath the bright silvery light of the moon.
.Instrumental.
He gave to me a ring
We named our wedding day
We planned on being married in the spring
Ah but now he is dead
and lying in his grave
Neath the bright silvery light of the moon.
So shine on silvery light
shine on through the night
The nightingales are singing their sweet song
Oh there's not a time so sweet
as when two lovers meet
neath the bright silvery light of the moon.
