Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF AGABWhite in the moon the long road lies | A |
The moon stands blank above | B |
White in the moon the long road lies | A |
That leads me from my love | B |

Still hangs the hedge without a gust | C |
Still still the shadows stay | D |
My feet upon the moonlit dust | C |
Pursue the ceaseless way | D |

The world is round so travellers tell | E |
And straight though reach the track | F |
Trudge on trudge on 'twill all be well | E |
The way will guide one back | F |

But ere the circle homeward hies | A |
Far far must it remove | G |
White in the moon the long road lies | A |
That leads me from my love | B |
