Early One Morning [Neapolitan translation]

Early one morning,

Just as the sun was rising,

I heard a young maid sing,

In the valley below.

[Chorus:]

Oh, don't deceive me,

Oh, never leave me,

How could you use

A poor maiden so?

Remember the vows,

That you made to your Mary,

Remember the bow'r,

Where you vowed to be true,

[Chorus]

Oh, gay is the garland,

And fresh are the roses,

I've culled from the garden,

To place upon thy brow.

[Chorus]

Thus sang the poor maiden,

Her sorrows bewailing,

Thus sang the poor maid,

In the valley below.

[Chorus]
