The skies they were ashen and sober	A
The leaves they were crisped and sere	B
The leaves they were withering and sere	B
It was night in the lonesome October	A
Of my most immemorial year	B
It was hard by the dim lake of Auber	A
In the misty mid region of Weir	C
It was down by the dank tarn of Auber	A
In the ghoul haunted woodland of Weir	C
	-
Here once through an alley Titanic	D
Of cypress I roamed with my Soul	E
Of cypress with Psyche my Soul	E
There were days when my heart was volcanic	D
As the scoriac rivers that roll	E
As the lavas that restlessly roll	E
Their sulphurous currents down Yaanek	D
In the ultimate climes of the pole	E
That groan as they roll down Mount Yaanek	D
In the realms of the boreal pole	E
	-
Our talk had been serious and sober	A
But our thoughts they were palsied and sere	B
Our memories were treacherous and sere	B
For we knew not the month was October	A
And we marked not the night of the year	B
Ah night of all nights in the year	B
We noted not the dim lake of Auber	A
Though once we had journeyed down here	C
Remembered not the dank tarn of Auber	A
Nor the ghoul haunted woodland of Weir	C
	-
And now as the night was senescent	F
And star dials pointed to morn	G
As the star dials hinted of morn	G
At the end of our path a liquescent	F
And nebulous lustre was born	G
Out of which a miraculous crescent	F
Arose with a duplicate horn	G
Astarte's bediamonded crescent	F
Distinct with its duplicate horn	G
	-
And I said 'She is warmer than Dian	H
She rolls through an ether of sighs	I
She revels in a region of sighs	I
She has seen that the tears are not dry on	J
These cheeks where the worm never dies	I
And has come past the stars of the Lion	H
To point us the path to the skies	I
To the Lethean peace of the skies	I
Come up in despite of the Lion	H
To shine on us with her bright eyes	I
Come up through the lair of the Lion	H
With love in her luminous eyes '	-
	-
But Psyche uplifting her finger	A
Said 'Sadly this star I mistrust	F
Her pallor I strangely mistrust	F
Oh hasten oh let us not linger	A
Oh fly let us fly for we must '	-
In terror she spoke letting sink her	A
Wings until they trailed in the dust	F
In agony sobbed letting sink her	A
Plumes till they trailed in the dust	F
Till they sorrowfully trailed in the dust	F
	-
I replied 'This is nothing but dreaming	D
Let us on by this tremulous light	F
Let us bathe in this crystalline light	F
Its Sybilic splendor is beaming	D
With Hope and in Beauty to night	F
See it flickers up the sky through the night	F
Ah we safely may trust to its gleaming	D
And be sure it will lead us aright	F
We safely may trust to a gleaming	D
That cannot but guide us aright	F
Since it flickers up to Heaven through the night '	-
	-
Thus I pacified Psyche and kissed her	A
And tempted her out of her gloom	K
And conquered her scruples and gloom	K
And we passed to the end of the vista	F
But were stopped by the door of a tomb	K
By the door of a legended tomb	K
And I said 'What is written sweet sister	A
On the door of this legended tomb '	-
She replied 'Ulalume Ulalume	K
'Tis the vault of thy lost Ulalume '	-
	-
Then my heart it grew ashen and sober	A
As the leaves that were crisped and sere	B
As the leaves that were withering and sere	B
And I cried 'It was surely October	A
On this very night of last year	B
That I journeyed I journeyed down here	C
That I brought a dread burden down here	C
On this night of all nights in the year	B
Ah what demon has tempted me here	C
Well I know now this dim lake of Auber	A
This misty mid region of Weir	C
Well I know now this dank tarn of Auber	A
This ghoul haunted woodland of Weir '	-
