Den Yowynk A Gernow / Young Man Of Cornwall Words

English Cornish 

REFERENCES
Cecil Sharp

Cecil Sharp collection - Maude Karpeles

Collected in Somerset by C Sharp. Thought to have been known as a broadside ballad. A second variation is given where the young man is a knight rather than a Cornishman. NOTES

Small number of copies in Kernewek circulated by Tony Snell in mid seventies and also sung traditionally but no formally printed version of Cornish Words.
