Chorus: Unite and unite, now let us unite For summer is a-come in today And whither we are going, we all will unite In the merry Morning of May
The young men of Padstow, they might if they would For summer is a-comin' today They might have built a ship and gilded it with gold In the merry Morning of May
[Chorus]
The young maids of Padstow, they might if they would For summer is a-comin' today They might have made a garland with the white rose and the red In the merry Morning of May
Oh, where are the young men who now here would dance For summer is a-comin' today? Oh some they are in England, and some they are in France In the merry Morning of May
[everyone kneel reverently] Oh, where is Saint George? Oh where is he now? He's out in his long boat All along the salt seas-O. Up flies the kite, Down falls the lark-O Aunt Ursulla Birdhood, she had an old yowe And she died in her own park-O [everyone stand]
