| In the shadow of your hair | B |
| As a traveller sees the stream | C |

| Ah me to linger there | B |
| To drink deep and to dream | C |
| In that sweet solitude | E |

| In the shadow of your eyes | A |
| As a seeker sees the gold | G |
| In the shadow of the stream | C |
| And I said Ah me what art | F |
| Should win the immortal prize | A |
| Whose want must make life cold | G |
| And Heaven a hollow dream | C |
| I looked and saw your love | H |
| In the shadow of your heart | F |
| As a diver sees the pearl | I |
| In the shadow of the sea | J |
| And I murmured not above | H |
| My breath but all apart | F |
| Ah you can love true girl | I |
| And is your love for me | J |
