| - | |
| I had a guinea golden | B |
| I lost it in the sand | C |
| And tho' the sum was simple | D |
| And pounds were in the land | C |
| Still had it such a value | E |
| Unto my frugal eye | F |
| That when I could not find it | G |
| I sat me down to sigh | F |
| - | |
| I had a crimson Robin | B |
| Who sang full many a day | H |
| But when the woods were painted | I |
| He too did fly away | H |
| - | |
| Time brought me other Robins | J |
| Their ballads were the same | K |
| Still for my missing Troubador | L |
| I kept the house at hame | K |
| - | |
| I had a star in heaven | B |
| One Pleiad was its name | K |
| And when I was not heeding | M |
| It wandered from the same | K |
| And tho' the skies are crowded | I |
| And all the night ashine | B |
| I do not care about it | G |
| Since none of them are mine | B |
| - | |
| My story has a moral | D |
| I have a missing friend | N |
| Pleiad its name and Robin | B |
| And guinea in the sand | C |
| And when this mournful ditty | O |
| Accompanied with tear | L |
| Shall meet the eye of traitor | L |
| In country far from here | L |
| Grant that repentance solemn | B |
| May seize upon his mind | P |
| And he no consolation | B |
| Beneath the sun may find | P |
