Who shall have my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?
Who but I should win my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?
Who shall win my lady,
When the leaves are green?
Not you, no, no,
The bravest man that best love can
Shall win my lady fair.
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
He shall marry her, he's the man;
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
When the leaves are green,
He shall marry my lady,
When the leaves are green.


Who shall have my lady fair,<br>
Will you bury my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?<br>
When the leaves are green?
Who but I should win my lady fair,<br>
No, not I; I won't bury my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?<br>
Who shall win my lady,<br>
When the leaves are green?<br>
Not you, no, no,<br>
The bravest man that best love can<br>
Shall win my lady fair.<br>
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,<br>
He shall marry her, he's the man;<br>
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,<br>
When the leaves are green,<br>
He shall marry my lady,<br>
When the leaves are green.
When the leaves are green.
 
Will you bury my lady,
Will you bury my lady fair,<br>
When the leaves are green?
When the leaves are green?<br>
Will you? Why so?
No, not I; I won't bury my lady fair,<br>
I'd rather marry my lady fair,
When the leaves are green.<br>
E'en though the trees were bare.
Will you bury my lady,<br>
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
When the leaves are green?<br>
She shall marry a proper man;
Will you? Why so?<br>
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
I'd rather marry my lady fair,<br>
When the leaves are green,
E'en though the trees were bare.<br>
He shall marry my lady,
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,<br>
She shall marry a proper man;<br>
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,<br>
When the leaves are green,<br>
He shall marry my lady,<br>
When the leaves are green.
When the leaves are green.

Who shall have my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?
Who but I should win my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?
Who shall win my lady,
When the leaves are green?
Not you, no, no,
The bravest man that best love can
Shall win my lady fair.
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
He shall marry her, he's the man;
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
When the leaves are green,
He shall marry my lady,
When the leaves are green.

Will you bury my lady fair,
When the leaves are green?
No, not I; I won't bury my lady fair,
When the leaves are green.
Will you bury my lady,
When the leaves are green?
Will you? Why so?
I'd rather marry my lady fair,
E'en though the trees were bare.
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
She shall marry a proper man;
Dandirly, dandirly, dandirly dan,
When the leaves are green,
He shall marry my lady,
When the leaves are green.
