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.
5 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
10 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;
15 But I was young and foolish,
and now
