It was Earl Haldan's daughter, / She looked across the sea; / She looked across the water; / And long and loud laughed she: / 'The locks of six princesses / Must be my marriage fee, / So hey bonny boat, and ho bonny boat! / Who comes a wooing me?'
It was Earl Haldan's daughter, / She walked along the sand; / When she was aware of a knight so fair, / Came sailing to the land.
