| With a heart like a stone | A |
| She maketh her moan | A |
| At the feet of the trees | B |
| With her face on her knees | B |
| And her hair streaming over | C |
| Wildly and wildly and wildly | D |
| For she misses the tracks of her lover | C |
| Do you hear her Ulmarra | C |
| Oh where are the tracks of her lover | C |
| Go by go by | E |
| They have told her a lie | E |
| Who said he was nigh | E |
| In the white cedar glen | F |
| In the camps of his men | F |
| And she sitteth there weeping | G |
| Weeping and weeping and weeping | G |
| For the face of a warrior sleeping | G |
| Do you hear her Ulmarra | C |
| Oh where is her warrior sleeping | G |

| A dream a dream | H |
| That they saw a bright gleam | H |
| Through the dusk boughs stream | H |
| Where wild bees dwell | I |
| And a tomahawk fell | I |
| In moons which have faded | J |
| Faded and faded and faded | J |
| From woods where a chieftain lies shaded | K |
| Do you hear her Ulmarra | C |
| Oh where doth her chieftain lie shaded | K |
| - | |
| Bewail bewail | I |
| Who whispered a tale | I |
| That they heard on the gale | I |
| Through the dark and the cold | L |
| The voice of the bold | L |
| And a boomerang flying | G |
| Flying and flying and flying | G |
| Ah her heart it is wasted with crying | G |
| Do you hear her Ulmarra | C |
| Oh her heart it is wasted with crying | G |
