One Sne dewy morning, As I set out, in the Autumn, Who should meet me on the road,But the bright love of my heart? When I gazed on her shoes, My tears began to trickle, AndI asked for three small kisses From the darling of my heart. 2. Oh! Im a young bouchaj (swain)Who thinks of getting married, And Ill make no rest anywhere thetil my love I find. Tillyou return, my treasure No other (maid) Id marry, Till I lie in the churchyard With the clayabove my head. 3.

Ilardiman, in his Irish Minstrelsy, publishedin 1831, attributes it to Oarolan, but Professor OMaille, in his volume onCarolan (Irish Iexts Society, vol. xvii, p. 209), says it is obviously not oneof Carolans.
