There the bendèn stream do flow, John,

By the mossy bridge's bow, John;

An' there the road do wind below the hill;

There the miller, white wi' meal, John,

Deafen'd wi' his foamy wheel, John,

Do stan' o' times a-lookèn out o' mill:

The while 'ithin his lightly-sheäken door.

His wheatèn flour do whitèn all his floor.

When my daily work's a-done, John,

At the zettèn o' the zun, John,
