Esther Ofarim

Esther Ofarim - He Moves Through The Fair lyrics

My young love said to me, "My mother won't mind Father won't slight you for your lack of kind." And he stepped away from me and this he did say It will not be long, love, till our wedding day." As he stepped away from me and he moved through the fair Fondly I watched him move here and move there And then he ... (here the song ends in the film.) (original lyrics going on with:) ... turned homeward with one star awake Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake. The people were saying, no two e'er were wed But one had a sorrow that never was said And I smiled as he passed with his goods and his gear And that was the last that I saw of my dear. Last night he came to me, my dead love came in So softly he came that his feet made no din As he laid his hand on me and this he did say "It will not be long, love, 'till our wedding day."
