To the bright world above | B |
I hear him yet with trembling breath | A |
Low calling O sweet love | B |

The flowers the open skies are there | C |
Come back to life and love | B |

Oh all my heart went out to him | D |

I followed through the cavern black | F |

And then I saw no more the sun | G |
And lost were life and love | B |
