The Welch Harper a favorite ballad
composed by Theodore Smith

Allegretto

Over the sunny hills I stray, Turn-ing many a rustic lay, -
and sometimes in the shadowy vales, I sing of love & battle tales, -
Me gaily thus I spend my life, Tho' poor my breast is free from strife,
The bleste Old Harper call'd am I, in the Welch vales 'mid mountains
high on the welch vales mid mountains high -
