Have a listen of these different versions of a favourite of mine
A tale of a young man who just didn’t listen

Down By the Salley Gardens

BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS

Down by the salley gardens
my love and I did meet;

She passed the salley gardens
 with little snow-white feet.

She bid me take love easy
as the leaves grow on the tree;

But I, being young and foolish
with her would not agree.

In a field by the river
my love and I did stand,

And on my leaning shoulder
she laid her snow-white hand.

She bid me take life easy
 as the grass grows on the weirs;

But I was young and foolish
and now am full of tears.

With a forecast like this for next week – I think there’s going to be a couple of stay at home and listen to the band days. . .

  1. What beautiful voices. I do prefer the 2nd one, Peter Hollens because I can hear and understand the words, whilst he stands in the snow. You have given me more music to watch and listen on youtube
