A Song of the Road

O I WILL walk with you, my lad, whichever way you fare,

You'll have me, too, the side o' you, with heart as light as air;

No care for where the road you take's a-leadin' anywhere,--

It can but be a joyful ja'nt whilst you journey there.

The road you take's the path o' love, an' that's the bridth o' two--

An' I will walk with you, my lad -- O I will walk with you.
