Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms

Lyrics by Thomas Moore.
This is an Irish Song of the early 1800s. The melody had been used earlier for the poem My Lodging it is in the Cold Ground (whose words were also associated with another tune by Locke). It was first printed in 1737 in London, but is probably much older. There was also a set of Scottish lyrics I Lo'ed Ne'er a Laddie But Ane . In 1808 Thomas Moore wrote the lyrics that are popular today. Wait a minute...it's in English!
