Along the river-zide, O,

An' païls to zet avore her knees,

At dawn an' evenèn-tide, O;

An' there she still mid zit, an' look

Athirt upon the woody nook

Where vu'st I zeed her by the brook

Bezide the Winter's Willow.

Zoo, who would heed the treeless down,

A-beät by all the storms, O,

Or who would heed the busy town,
