Folk groups - song lyrics

   The New-Mown Hay - - As I walked forth one summer's morn, - Hard by a river's side, - Where yellow cowslips did adorn - The blushing field with pride; - I spied a damsel on the grass, - More blooming than the may; - Her looks the Queen of Love surpassed, - Among the new-mown hay. - 2. I said, Good morning, pretty maid, - How came you here so soon? - To keep my father's sheep, she said, - The thing that must be done: - While they are feeding 'mong the dew, - To pass the time away, - I sit me down to knit or sew, - Among the new-mown hay.

 
 

What has been said 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
