She Moved Through The Fair - Marianne Faithfull

My young love said to me, «My brothers won’t mind

And my father won’t slight you for your lack of kind»

Then she turned her head to me and this she did say

«It will not be long, love, till our wedding day»

She turned away from me and she moved through the fair

And I watched her so swiftly move here and move there

Then she turned away homeward with one star awake

Like a swan in the evening moves over the lake

Last night, I did dream that my dead love come in

So softly she entered that her feet made no din

And she turned her head to me and this she did say

«It will not be long, love, till our wedding day»

Thank you
