Down by the Salley Gardens - A tribute to Maura O'Connell, Karen Matheson & William Butler Yeats Sung by Maura O'Connell and Karen MathesonDown by the Salley Gardens is a poem by William Butler Yeats published in The Wanderings of Oisin and Other Poems in 1889. ==================Down by the Sally GardensMy love and I did meet.She passed the Sally GardensWith little snow-white feet.She bid me take love easyAs the leaves grow on the trees,But I, being young and foolish,With her would not agree.In the field down by the riverMy love and I did stand,And on my leaning shoulderShe laid her snow-white hand.She bid me take life easy,As the grass grows on the weirs,But I was young and foolishAnd now I am full of tears.======================
