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.

What has been said about Folk Groups.

Much has been written about folk music and folk groups. Here are some quotations:-

To handle folk tunes is one of the most difficult tasks; equally difficult, if not more so than to write a major original composition. If we keep in mind that borrowing a tune means being bound by its individual peculiarity, we shall understand one part of the difficulty. Another is created by the special character of folk tune. We must penetrate into it, feel it and bring out its sharp contours by the appropriate setting.~ Bela Bartok
