Bride's Farewell - Steeleye Span

So I bid you farewell and I beg you forgive me

With your love in my heart, you will always be with me

So I bid you farewell and I beg you forgive me

With your love in my heart, you will always be with me…

Farewell, dear mother, now I must leave you

Tears they pour down your tender cheek

Farewell, dear mother, oh, how I love you

Here in my bosom, tears I can speak

Farewell, dear father, now I must leave you

Never a stranger, always a man

Farewell, dear father, guardian father

Now I must leave you, that’s if I can…

So I bid you farewell and I beg you forgive me

With your love in my heart, you will always be with me

So I bid you farewell and I beg you forgive me

With your love in my heart, you will always be with me…

Farewell, dear sister, now I must leave you

All your affection, ever so deep

Farewell, dear sister, beautiful sister

One day we’re given, why you should weep

Farewell, dear brother, my gentle brother

Thou art more given, my words can tell

Father and mother, sister and brother

All my beloved, oh, fare thee well

So I bid you farewell and I beg you forgive me

With your love in my heart, you will always be with me

So I bid you farewell and I beg you forgive me

With your love in my heart, you will always be with me…
