W:Within a garden a maiden lingered,
W:When soft the shades of evening fell
W:Expecting, fearing,
W:A footstep hearing,
W:Her love appearing,
W:To say farewell.
W:
W:With sighs and sorrow their vows they plighted
W:Once more embrace, one last adieu;
W:Tho' seas divide, love,
W:In this confide, love,
W:Whate'er betide, love
W:To thee I'm true.
W:
W:Long years are over, and still the maiden
W:Seeks oft at eve the trysting tree;
W:Her promise keeping,
W:And, faithful weeping
W:Her lost love sleeping
W:Across the sea.
