W:1
W:Down yonder green valley, where streamlets meander,
W:When twilight is fading I pensively rove
W:Or at the bright noontide in solitude wander,
W:Amid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove;
W:'T was there, while the blackbird was cheerfully singing,
W:I first met that dear one, the joy of my heart!
W:And near us for gladness the bluebells were ringing
W:Ah! then little thought I how soon we should part.
W:
W:2
W:Still glows the bright sunshine o'er valley and mountain,
W:Still warbles the blackbird its note from the tree;
W:Still trembles the moonbean on streamlet and fountain,
W:But what are the beauties of nature to me?
W:With sorrow, deep sorrow, my bosom is laden,
W:All day I go mourning in search of my love
W:(In search of my love);
W:Ye echoes, oh, tell me, where is the sweet maiden?
W:"She sleeps, 'neath the green turf down by the ash grove."
