I'm a Lass o' th' Forest  (Ballad)
© 2004-2014 Marvin E. Fuller

		I'm a lass o' th' forest,
		Swift as th' breeze,
		Silent as th' shade,
		Strong as th' oak,
		Soft as th' moss.

		I'm a lass o' th' forest,
		An' I'd be naught else,
		Runnin' in th' sky,
		Flyin' though th' wind,
		High as th' clouds,
		Deep as th' roots.

		I'm a lass o' th' forest,
		Where breezes play,
		An' leaves dance,
		Where water rushes,
		An' brooks sing.

		I'm a lass o' th' forest,
		Born t' th' ash an' willow,
		Livin' 'mong aspen an' ivy,
		Lovin' in rowan an' holly,
		Dyin' 'bout elder an' birch.
