Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGFG HIHI| Over the rim of the Moor | A |
| And under the starry sky | B |
| Two men came to my door | C |
| And rested them thereby | B |
| - | |
| Beneath the bough and the star | D |
| In a whispering foreign tongue | E |
| They talked of a land afar | D |
| And the merry days so young | E |
| - | |
| Beneath the dawn and the bough | F |
| I heard them arise and go | G |
| And my heart it is aching now | F |
| For the more it will never know | G |
| - | |
| Why did they two depart | H |
| Before I could understand | I |
| Where lies that land O my heart | H |
| O my heart where lies that land | I |
