Marguerite [Greek translation]

Oh, the year was 1542

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

Marguerite, her man and her servant, too

They roamed the hills of Newfoundland

The hills of Newfoundland

Oh, all around you Marguerite

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

There are woods to hide and berries to eat

On the hills of Newfoundland, my love

On the hills of Newfoundland

Oh, the serving maid on guard she stood

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

While they made a bed in that lonely wood

On the hills of Newfoundland, my love

On the hills of Newfoundland

Oh, uncle dear, what have I done?

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

I have loved a man and will bear his son

On the hills of Newfoundland, it was

On the hills of Newfoundland

Oh from my sight forever go

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

The world a man no longer know

To the île des Démons you go

To the île des Démons

After eight long months her young man died

Marguerite grew strong

Marguerite grew strong

Then the serving maid and then her child

On the hills of Newfoundland, my love

On the hills of Newfoundland

Oh, alone and lonely lost in prayer

Oh, a year went by

Oh, a year went by

When a fishing party found her there

On the hills of Newfoundland, it was

On the hills of Newfoundland

Oh, uncle dear, you thought I died

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

But with my God and love I did survive

L'île des Démons, mon oncle

L'île des Démons

Oh, her love is gone and her child grows cold

Oh the years go by

Oh the years go by

But Marguerite in France grows old

And she thinks back to the days of love

On the hills of Newfoundland

So come now, love, and take my hand

In the springtime, love

In the springtime, love

And like Marguerite we'll make our stand

And we'll live and love as woman and man

On the hills of Newfoundland
