Matthew Gregory Lewis , |
| On the banks of the Allan Water, |
| When the sweet springtime did fall, |
| Was the miller's lovely daughter, |
| Fairest of them all. |
| For his bride, a soldier sought her |
| And a winning tongue had he, |
| False was he. |
| On the banks of the Allan Water |
| So misled was she. |
| On the banks of the Allan Water |
| When the autumn spread its store |
| There I saw the miller's daughter |
| But she smiled no more, |
| For the summer, grief had brought her |
| And the soldier, false was he, |
| On the banks of the Allan Water, |
| Left alone was she. |
| On the banks of the Allan Water |
| When the winter snow fell fast |
| Still was seen the miller's daughter |
| Chilling blew the blast. |
| But the miller's lovely daughter, |
| Both from cold and care was free, |
| On the banks of Allan Water, |
| In a grave lay she. |
