two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
*As the blackbird in the spring
'Neath the willow tree
Sat and piped, I heard him sing
Praising Aura Lee

Circle left
Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with you
And swallows in the air


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Take my hand; take my ring
I give my all to you
Take me to eternity
Dearest Aura Lee


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru go four hands 'round
You make a right hand star
Heads (sides) reverse flutter wheel for me
Sweep 1/4 'till you're home.
Sides (heads) touch 1/4, then the boys run right
Swing your corner, all promenade
Sunshine came along with you
And swallows in the air
