Mountain Girl
Mountain girl:
Come down from those snowy mountains,
Come down from those frozen peaks,
Come down from those windy meadows,
Come down from those lonely steppes.
Mountain girl:
Come into my cosy cabin,
Come into my feather bed,
Come warm my weary body,
Come soothe my fiery head.
Mountain girl:
Come share my food and wine,
Come help me with my work,
Come link your life with mine,
Come fill my heart with thine.
