We part for ever from today Farewell beloved one And I, unto may death, your way Will shun.
I care not now where you may go You can no more bereave me Today the sweetest girl I know Does leave me.
[Chorus:]
And the air still moves my curtain As it used in times of yore... Moonlight down the lane uncertain Only you come nevermore
Nor shall I as in former hours Build spanish castles high With star-lit windows, and with towers of sky, When, shivering with bitter cold Through winter nights uncertain I watched lest you perhaps unfold Your curtain.
O what delight to stroll with you Beneath that flowering trees When poured its light their branches through, The moon.
[Repeat Chorus]
That I might catch with rapturous thrill The words that you let fall And that today I barely still Recall.
How often did I secretly pray Swift night her sails would furl That we might thus forever stray Fair girl.
[Repeat Chorus]
