| 1 | 1 | There w | There dwelt a miller, hale and bold, beside the river Dee; |
| 2 | 2 | He danced and sang from morn till night, no lark so blithe as he; | |
| 3 | 3 | And this the burden of his song forever used to be: - | |
| 4 | 4 | "I care for nobody, no not I, if nobody cares for me. | |
| 5 | And this the burden of his song | ||
| 6 | Forever used to be: - | ||
| 7 | I care for nobody, no not I, | ||
| 8 | If nobody cares for me. | ||
| 9 | 5 | ||
| 10 | 6 | I l | "I live by my mill, God bless her! she's kindred, child, and wife; |
| 11 | 7 | I would not change my station for any other in life; | |
| 12 | 8 | No lawyer, surgeon, or doctor e'er had a groat from me; | |
| 13 | 9 | I care for nobody, no not I if nobody cares for me." | |
| 14 | Then push, push, push the bowl, my boys, | ||
| 15 | And pass it round to me; | ||
| 16 | The longer we sit here and drink | ||
| 17 | The merrier we shall be. | ||
| 18 | 10 | ||
| 19 | 11 | When spring begins his merry career, oh, how his heart grows gay; | |
| 20 | 12 | No summer's drought alarms his fear, nor winter's cold decay; | |
| 21 | 13 | No foresight mars the miller's joy, who's wont to sing and say, | |
| 22 | 14 | "Let others toil from year to year, I live from day to day." | |
| 23 | 15 | ||
| 24 | 16 | Thus, like the miller, bold and free, let us rejoice and sing; | |
| 25 | 17 | The days of youth are made for glee, and time is on the wing; | |
| 26 | 18 | T | This song shall pass from me to thee, along the jovial ring; |
| 19 | Let heart and voice and all agree to say, "Long live the king." |
