A young Lady is going dancing with a golden ribbon She ties it firmly around the young man’s hand
My dear Milady, please set me free ; I certainly will not run away from you
Hardly does she untie the golden ribbon When the young man runs into the forest
Hold young men as firmly as can be; they Otherwise take to their heels in no time at all
Observaţii despre traducere
It's an old folk's song dating back from the XIXth century. Some words are nowadays archaic. I translated it regardless of any musical consideration and took for granted that it wasn't to be translated literally, but rather in a way that makes sense in English.
