Not a new tale but [bad word] That my first love has celebrated her wedding feast

You plighted your troth to me when young

You plighted your troth to me when young
Fair Jean of the warm, bewitching eyes

Fair Jean of the warm, bewitching eyes
Young Jean with the many golden ringlets

More red your cheek than the rowan berry on branch

More red your cheek than the rowan berry on branch
Your teeth are white, closely-set and strong
