COME ALL YE FAIR MAIDENS. Irish, Air (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. O'Neill (1913) points out this is an example of the class of tunes facetiously termed "Come, all ye..." on account of the comparatively large number of songs which began with those words in British Isles tradition.
Come all ye fair maidens, take warning by me,
And never look up to the top of a tree;
For the leaves they will wither and the roots they will die;
And my love has forsak'n me, and sorry am I,
My dear, and sorry am I. (Joyce)
