Paragraph Lyric
Broken-hearted I’ll wander
For the loss of my lover
He is my bonny light horseman
In the wars he was slain.

When Boney commanded
His army to stand,
He leveled his cannon
Right over the land
He leveled his cannon
His victory to gain
And slew my light horseman
On the way coming in.

Broken-hearted I’ll wander
Broken-hearted I’ll remain
Since my bonny light horseman
In the wars he was slain.

And if I was a small bird
And had wings to fly
I would fly o’er the salt seas
To where my love does lie.
And with my fond wings I’d
Beat over his grave,
And kiss the pale lips that
Lie cold in the clay

Broken-hearted I’ll wander
Broken-hearted I’ll remain
Since my bonny light horseman
In the wars he was slain.

Now the dove she laments for
Her mate as she flies.
“Tell me where, oh, tell me where is
My true love,” she cries.
And where in this wide world
Is there one to compare
With my bonny light horseman
Who was slain in the war.

Broken-hearted I’ll wander
Broken-hearted I’ll remain
Since my bonny light horseman
In the wars he was slain.

When Boney commanded
His army to stand,
He leveled his cannon
Right over the land
He leveled his cannon
His victory to gain
And slew my light horseman
On the way coming in.

Broken-hearted I’ll wander
For the loss of my lover
He is my bonny light horseman
In the wars he was slain.
Broken-hearted I’ll wander   For the loss of my lover   He is my bonny light horseman   In the wars he was slain.      When Boney commanded   His army to stand,   He leveled his cannon   Right over the land   He leveled his cannon   His victory to gain   And slew my light horseman   On the way coming in.      Broken-hearted I’ll wander   Broken-hearted I’ll remain   Since my bonny light horseman   In the wars he was slain.      And if I was a small bird   And had wings to fly   I would fly o’er the salt seas   To where my love does lie.   And with my fond wings I’d   Beat over his grave,   And kiss the pale lips that   Lie cold in the clay      Broken-hearted I’ll wander   Broken-hearted I’ll remain   Since my bonny light horseman   In the wars he was slain.      Now the dove she laments for   Her mate as she flies.   “Tell me where, oh, tell me where is   My true love,” she cries.   And where in this wide world   Is there one to compare   With my bonny light horseman   Who was slain in the war.      Broken-hearted I’ll wander   Broken-hearted I’ll remain   Since my bonny light horseman   In the wars he was slain.      When Boney commanded   His army to stand,   He leveled his cannon   Right over the land   He leveled his cannon   His victory to gain   And slew my light horseman   On the way coming in.      Broken-hearted I’ll wander   For the loss of my lover   He is my bonny light horseman   In the wars he was slain.
