Rhyme Scheme: AABCBC DEDDCEC FFECEC EEGCGC

On the sunset borders of the mountains I strayA
Of a dear home dreaming 'yond the snow peaks far awayA
While the bubbling brook beside me goes dancing alongB
As it seeks the Golden Gate of the ocean blueC
And a lone bird murmurs in the bush top his songB
Pity me Loo Pity me Loo Pity me LooC
-
Tra la la la la la la laD
From mate to mate the carol ringsE
Tra la la la la la la laD
la la la laD
A thousand valleys throughC
Yet the lone bird sorrows as he plaintively singsE
Pity me Loo Pity me Loo Pity me LooC
-
'Neath the rocks I'm treading there are treasures of goldF
But by far more precious is my own native moldF
Nevermore in search of Beauty need Fancy take wingsE
Here is beauty here is grandeur at ev'ry viewC
Yet my heart grows heavy and the lone bird still singsE
Pity me Loo Pity me Loo Pity me LooC
-
In the green clad valley where the wayward brook mendsE
There are homes most charming there are warmhearted friendsE
Lovely dell it seems an Eden afloat in mid airG
As if God had sent from Heaven a creation newC
But its charm is broken for my heart is not thereG
Pity me Loo Pity me Loo Pity me LooC
