Lyrics by George Johnson in 1865(1839~1917)

Music by James Austin Butterfield in 1866

Paiter-Frederic John L. Sterevens(English Paiter)

(1st verse)

I wandered today to the hill,Maggie,

To watch the scene below

The creek and the creaking old mill,Maggie,

As we used to long long ago.

The green grove is gone from the hill,Maggie,

Where first the daisies sprung.

The creaking old mill is still,Maggie,

Since you and I were young.

(3rd. verse)

They say  I`m feeble with age,Maggie.

My steps are less sprightly  than then

My faces is a well written page,Maggie.

But  time alone was the pen.

They say we are aged and grey,Maggie.

As  spray by the white breakers flung

But to me you`re as  fair as you were,Maggie.

When you and I were young.
