all ye maidens hear me warning

never trade the hearts of men

they will crush you like a sparrow

leaving you to never mend

they will vow to always love you

swear no love but yours will do

then they'll leave you for another

break your little heart in two



(chours)

little sparrow,little sparrow

precious fragile little thing

little sparrow,little sparrow

flies sp high and feels no pain



if i were a little sparrow

o'er these mountains i would fly

i would find him,i would find him

and look into his lying eyes

i would flutter all around him

on my little sparrow wings

i would ask him,i would ask him

why he let me love in vain



i am not a little sparrow

i am just a broken dream

of a cold,false-hearted lover

and his evil cunning scheme]



(repeat chours)
