about

Parting Glass is an Irish/Scottish song first referenced in 1604

lyrics

Of all the money 'ere I had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm I've ever done
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit,
To memory now I cannot recall.
So, fill to me the Parting Glass,
Goodnight and joy be with you all.

If I had money enough to spend,
And leisure time to sit a while,
There is a fair maid in this town,
That surely hath my heart beguiled.
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips,
I owe, she hath my heart enthralled,
So, fill to me the Parting Glass,
Goodnight and joy be with you all.

Of all the comrades ere I had
They are sorry for my going away
And all the sweet hearts ere I had,
They'd wished me one more day to stay.
But since it fell, into my lot,
That I should rise and you should not
So I gently rise and softly go,
Good night and joy be with you all.
