| And the flags where the butter bump hides in forever | A |
| Farewell to the weedy nook hemmed in by waters | B |
| Farewell to the miller's brook and his three bonny daughters | B |
| Farewell to them all while in prison I lie | C |
| In the prison a thrall sees naught but the sky | C |

| Shut out are the green fields and birds in the bushes | D |
| In the prison yard nothing builds blackbirds or thrushes | D |
| Farewell to the old mill and dash of waters | B |
| To the miller and dearer still to his three bonny daughters | B |
| - | |
| In the nook the larger burdock grows near the green willow | E |
| In the flood round the moor cock dashes under the billow | E |
| To the old mill farewell to the lock pens and waters | B |
| To the miller himsel' and his three bonny daughters | B |
