Lady Diamond (Child 269, Roud 112) is an English-language folk song, existing in several variants.
[2] A great king has a daughter (Lady Diamond, Daisy, Dysmal, or Dysie), who falls in love with his kitchen boy.
The 2011 debut album by Bryony Griffith & Will Hampson of The Demon Barbers is entitled Lady Diamond and features a recording of the ballad.
In 1939, Alan Lomax recorded Aunt Molly Jackson singing “Lady Nancy,” a song she claimed to have written after reading the story in a book of English and Scottish Kings.
Such outlandish claims were common with Jackson, although this is quite possibly the only known American version of Lady Diamond to be collected.
