Laura Wright - Down By The Salley Gardens

[@conniekendall1056]

I have so much trouble finding good versions of these songs! Thank you, this is beautiful!

[@lavoxii]

Down by the salley garden
My love and I did meet;
She passed the salley garden
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 fie-ld 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

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.

[@redandgreenofmayo]

beautiful Irish melody derived from the w.B Yeats poem beautifully sung with an exquisite voice

[@itzimogen5087]

I love this song i sing to it every morning ever since I have heard of it in my music class (i can't quite hail the high notes)😇

[@user-kq5qp6dh8l]

Wonderful interpretation, the vocalist is so pretty.

Beautiful voice! I wish I could buy her album. But in Venezuela it is hard to buy things from outside... :(

Down by the salley gardens
My love and I did meet
She crossed the salley gardens
With little snow-white feet
She bid me to take life easy
As the leaves grow on the tree
But I was young and foolish
And with her I did not agree
In a field down by the river
My love and I did stand
And upon 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 I am full of tears
It was down by the salley gardens
My love and I did meet
She crossed the salley gardens
With little snow-white feet
She bid me to take life easy
As the leaves grow on the tree
But I was young and foolish
And with her I did not agree

🌹Admirable

[@iradiakalenz4225]

Well, actually it should be "leaves grow..."
But the rest is incredible!

Beautful

[@trescenkinas]

Wanderful :)

[@Fitzliputzli23]

Besides the voice - it is an excellent arrangement also.

[@ternitamas]

Grass grows on trees?

[@jamesdolan4042]

It may have been a slip up, or toss up yes it's not trees, it is weirs. Besides she sings beautifully.

[@sippyjuice]

as the grass grows on the trees?

[@laughingcorpses4463]

sippyjuice as the leaves grow and the trees.

[@markuskohler1196]

Ich höre einen Engel singen.

[@Jack9788]

First verse is 'as the leaves grow on the tree'. Second verse is 'as the grass grows on the weirs'

[@laughingcorpses4463]

This is similar to how we’re learning it in choir.

[@carrie-annhamilton3242]

Same

[@mckenziekennedy2101]

Can't find this arrangement online anywhere sadly :(

[@jimmyjames417]

This is Laura Wright though ??

[@anneallen674]

the lyrics in question are "the grass grows on the lea". She sings it correctly, and beautifully, on the first stanza.

[@chrisludlam-GrecoThai]

She clearly sings"..grass grows on the trees"...But the song Is very well sung.

[@Palimbacchius]

No, it's 'the leaves grow on the tree.' But beautifully sung.

[@jamesstuartbrice420]

outstanding. a bit like Orla Fallon's version.

[@manymany4879]

pick up the tempo
