Traditional
I heard a bonny cow low, cow low, cow low
I heard a bonny cow low over the lea
And it was an elf-call, elf-call, elf-call
And it was an elf-call, calling unto me
And the little elf-call, elf-call, elf-call
And the little elf-call said unto me
Chorus
Come and nurse an elf child, elf child, elf child
Come and nurse an elf child down beneath the sea
Come and nurse an elf child, elf child, elf child
Come and nurse an elf child down beneath the sea
What do you moan for, moan for, moan for
What do you moan for the elf king said to me
I'm moaning for my own child, own child, own child
I'm moaning for my own child, far across the sea
Then the little elf-king, elf-king, elf-king
Then the little elf-king said unto me
Chorus
