It being in the springtime
and the small birds they were singing
Down by yon shady harbour
I carelessly did stray
when the thrushes they were warbling
The violets they were charming
To view fond lovers talking
a while I did delay
She said,my dear
don't leave me not for another season
Though fortune may be pleasing
I 'll go along with you
and I 'll giveup friends and relations
and I 'll quit this Irish nation
And to the bonny Bann banks forever I 'll bid adieu.
He said,my dear
don't grieve
nor yet annoy my patience
you know that I love you dearly although I'm going away
I'm going to a surfing nation
to purchase a plantation，
To comfort us here after all in Amerikay.
The landlords and their agents
The bailiffs and their beagles
The land of our forefathers
We’re going for to giveo’er
And Now we’re sailing o’er the ocean for honour and promotion
And parting with our sweethearts – its them we do adore
If I were you were lying I'll thinking of the dying
One sight of the bonny Bann banks, and your sorrow you'd give over
And if you were down one hour
All in her shady bower
Pleasure would surround you
you'd think on death no more
So fare with you well
So sweet Cragie Hill
where often times I've roved
I never thought my childhood days I 'd part with you no more
Now we‘re sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion
And the bonny boats are sailing,way down by Doorin shore
