History is reflected in the words of many songs of many folk groups

   Phillis The Queen O' The Fair - - Adown winding Nith I did wander, - To mark the sweet flowers as they spring; - Adown winding Nith I did wander, - Of Phillis to muse and to sing. - Chorus - Awa' wi' your belles and your beauties, - They never wi' her can compare, - Whaever has met wi' my Phillis, - Has met wi' the queen o' the fair. - 2. The daisy amus'd my fond fancy, - So artless, so simple, so wild; - Thou emblem, said I, o' my Phillis - For she is Simplicity's child. - Chorus: - - 3. The rose-bud's the blush o' my charmer, - Her sweet balmy lip when 'tis prest: - How fair and how pure is the lily! - But fairer and purer her breast.

 
 

Quotations about Folk Groups.      

A sample of what has been written about folk groups. A Quotation:-

A genuine peasant melody of our land is a musical example of perfected art. I consider it quite as much of a masterpiece—in miniature—as a Bach fugue or Mozart sonata is a masterpiece in the larger forms. ~ Bela Bartok
