- Henry My Son Lyrics / with translationsWhere have you been all day, Henry my son?
Where have you been all day, my beloved one?
Away on the meadow, away on the meadow,
Make my bed I've a pain in my head, and I want to lie down.
And what did you have to eat, Henry my son?
What did you have to eat, my beloved one?
Poison beans, poison beans,
Make my bed.....
And what colour were those beans...
Green and yellow, green and yellow,
Make my bed...
What will you leave your mother?
A woollen vest.
What will you leave your father?
A watch and chain.
What will you leave your brother?
A blue suit.
What will you leave your children?
The sun and moon.
What will you leave your sweetheart?
A rope to hang her.
Where have you been all day, my beloved one?
Away on the meadow, away on the meadow,
Make my bed I've a pain in my head, and I want to lie down.
And what did you have to eat, Henry my son?
What did you have to eat, my beloved one?
Poison beans, poison beans,
Make my bed.....
And what colour were those beans...
Make my bed...
What will you leave your mother?
A woollen vest.
What will you leave your father?
A watch and chain.
What will you leave your brother?
A blue suit.
What will you leave your children?
The sun and moon.
What will you leave your sweetheart?
A rope to hang her.
