Oh boy be empty
Oh boy be strong
Your heart beats lightly
But your ears be full of song

Oh lady be good
Oh lady be strong
Your eyes are wisdom
Your old soul is one

And over there with grass green hair
Sits the maiden in her chair
Holding flowers and wasting hours
How I long to sit there

Oh pasty boy
Oh pasty girl
Lay down tonight
Lay down tonight

Silent shivers of a touch
Race around and bound
My cold winter hands
Cold as the land

And over there with grass green hair
Sits the maiden in her chair
Holding flowers and wasting hours
How I long to sit there
