La chanson raconte l'histoire tragique d'une noble dame anglaise qui souhaite épouser un chevalier écossais, animée par un amour puissant. Malgré leur bonheur initial à l'aube, leur voyage d'amour est tourmenté par le père de la jeune femme, qui rejette cette union. Malheureusement, le destin se montre cruel, car la dame trouve la mort dans les bras de son bien-aimé après une série de conflits familiaux déchirants. Le chevalier, désespéré, tue son beau-frère avant de partir en croisade, sacrifiant sa vie pour l'amour qu'il partageait. La chanson se termine par un appel à prier pour leurs âmes, soulignant que l'amour, même face à l'adversité, demeure le véritable maître du cœur.
