[Verse 1]
Oh, the streams of lovely Nancy
Divide in three parts
Where the young men and maidens
They meet their sweethearts
It's a drinking of good liquor
That make my heart sing
And the noise in the valley
Make the rocks for to ring
[Verse 2]
At the top of this mountain
My love's castle stands
And it's overbuilt with ivory
On yonder black sand
Fine arches, fine porches
Like diamonds so bright
It's a beacon for a sailor
On a dark winter's night
[Verse 3]
On yonder high mountain
The wild fowl do fly
And it's one in amongst them
That files very high
If I had her in my arms
Near diamond's black land
How soon I would secure her
By the sleight of my hand
Oh, the streams of lovely Nancy
