[00:05:21] [Verse 1

[00:05:21] I went to see my love, thinking to woo her

[00:05:21] I sat down by her side, not to undo her

[00:05:21] But when I looked on her my tongue did quiver

[00:05:21] I could not speak my mind while I was with her

[00:05:21] [Verse 2

[00:05:21] "Love, here's a diamond ring, long time I've kept it

[00:05:21] All for your sake alone if you'll accept it

[00:05:21] When you this token view, think on the giver

[00:05:21] Madam, remember me or I'm undone forever"

[00:05:21] [Verse 3

[00:05:21] Then forth went this brave youth and crossed the ocean

[00:05:21] To free America was his intention

[00:05:21] He landed at Quebec with all his party

[00:05:21] The city to attack, both brave and hearty

[00:05:21] [Verse 4

[00:05:21] Montcalm and this brave youth together walked

[00:05:21] On the Plains of Abraham like brothers talked

[00:05:21] 'Til each one took his post and did retire

[00:05:21] 'Twas then these numerous hosts commenced their fire

[00:05:21] [Verse 5

[00:05:21] The drums did loudly beat with colors flying

[00:05:21] The purple gore did stream, and men lay dying

[00:05:21] Then shot from off his horse fell that brave hero

[00:05:21] We'll long lament his loss that day in sorrow

[00:05:21] [Verse 6

[00:05:21] He raised up his head where the guns did rattle

[00:05:21] And to his aide he said, "How goes the battle?"

[00:05:21] "Quebec is all our own, they can't prevent it"

[00:05:21] He said without a groan, "I die contented"
