One of them is all alone And evermore shall be so Two of them are lily-white Boys all clothed in green-oh Three of them are strangers O'er the wide world they are rangers Four it is the dilly hour When blooms the gilly flower Five it is the dilly bird That's seldom seen but heard Six it is the ferryman The boat o'er the river floats oh Seven are the seven stars in the sky The shining stars be seven-oh Eight it is the morning break Then all the world's awake-oh Nine it is the pale moonshine The shining moon is nine-oh Ten forgives all kinds of sin From ten begin again-oh
