Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHIH AJAJ| HERE is the dim enchanted wood | A |
| Your face a mystery divine | B |
| But half revealed half understood | A |
| Appears the counterpart of mine | B |
| - | |
| Beyond the wood the daylight lies | C |
| Cruel and hard it lies in wait | D |
| To steal the magic from your eyes | C |
| And from your lips the thrill of fate | D |
| - | |
| Ah stay with me a little while | E |
| Here where the magic shadows rest | F |
| Where all my world is in your smile | E |
| And all my heaven on your breast | F |
| - | |
| Ah no cling close what need to move | G |
| What need to advance or explore | H |
| We came here blindly led by love | I |
| Who will not lead us any more | H |
| - | |
| Thank God that here we two have stood | A |
| Thank God this shade was ours to win | J |
| Time with his axe has marked our wood | A |
| And he will let the daylight in | J |
