| And Luna gentle shepherdess the while | C |
| Keeps near her flock and guards it with her smile | C |
| I almost fancy I can hear her song | D |
| Down to this shadowed stile | C |

| Lo Zephyrus fond lover comes to woo | E |
| With airy step he hastes the pastures through | E |
| And steals a kiss from Luna as she nods | F |
| Drowsy with fragrant dew | E |

| She starts the little lambs aroused from sleep | G |
| Fly hence but Luna near her swain doth keep | G |
| Oh it was ever thus since lover came | H |
| 'Twixt shepherdess and sheep | G |
