| I am wearing away from the pain in my heart | B |
| But ne'er shall he know who my peace has undone | A |
| How bitter how lasting how deep is my smart | B |
| - | |
| I know he would pity so kind is his soul | C |
| To him my affliction would agony be | D |
| But never while I can my feelings control | C |
| The youth whom I love shall know sorrow through me | D |

| Though longing to weep in his presence I'll smile | E |
| Call the flush of my cheek the pure crimson of health | F |
| His fears for my peace by my song I'll beguile | E |
| Nor venture to gaze on his eyes but by stealth | F |

| For conscious I am by my glance is exprest | B |
| The passion that faithful as hopeless will be | D |
| And he whom alas I can ne'er render blest | B |
| Shall never no never know sorrow through me | D |
