Roaming with thee I am happy and free,
Dreaming of thee fills my heart full of glee,
Longing for thee brings a sad memory
Sweet little maid of the mountain.
Why do I grieve when I’m left alone?
Why do I sigh when thou art gone?
We will meet when the night comes on,
Sweet little maid of the mountain?
Chorus:
We’ll meet when the night comes on,
Down the glade on the leafy lawn,
We’ll roam till the break of dawn,
Sweet little maid of the mountain. |
Over the waters we’ll gracefully glide,
I’ve got a bark that can weather the tide,
Out on the sea I will sit by thy side,
Sweet little maid of the mountain.
Meet me at eve in the shady glen,
There I will sing a gentle strain,
You must come to that soft refrain,
Sweet little maid of the mountain?
Chorus: |
