| See how the mocking mirages play | B |
| Men who have ventured and paid the cost | C |
| Lone waiting women 'tis vain to pray | B |
| We dies unshriven as rovers die | D |
| And no man knows where our white bones lie | D |
| Black birds gather when rovers stray | B |
| Out where the mocking mirages play | B |

| A maiden has waited a long year thro' | B |
| Mark where a crow from the northward flies | E |
| 'Ah can he be false that had sworn so true ' | - |
| They say that a wanderer woos with lies | E |
| A maiden has waited and counted the days | F |
| Since a lover went roving the northward ways | F |
| What do they profit unheeded sighs | E |
| Mark where a crow from the northward flies | E |
| - | |
| Out in the desert a still thing lies | E |
| Westward the sun is sinking low | G |
| Who is to mourn when a rover dies | E |
| Hark 'Tis the caw of a sated crow | G |
| Who is to tell of a mad'ning thrist | D |
| Of a lonely death in a land accurst | D |
| Merciful God Is she ne'er to know | G |
| Hark to the caw of a sated crow | G |
| - | |
| Oh we are the legion that never came back | H |
| Ever have rovers to count the cost | D |
| Men who went out on the waterless track | H |
| Curst is the plain that was ne'er recross'd | D |
| Restless to roam o'er the desert our doom | I |
| Till our end shall be known and our bones find a tomb | I |
| Mourn for the souls of wanderers lost | D |
| Ever have rovers to count the cost | D |
