| Who rush by who shake | B |
| The window and ruffle | C |
| The gleam lighted lake | B |
| Who cross to the hill side | D |
| Thin sprinkled with farms | E |
| Where the high woods strip sadly | F |
| Their yellowing arms | E |
| Ye are bound for the mountains | G |
| Ah with you let me go | H |
| Where your cold distant barrier | I |
| The vast range of snow | H |
| Through the loose clouds lifts dimly | F |
| Its white peaks in air | J |
| How deep is their stillness | K |
| Ah would I were there | J |
| - | |
| But on the stairs what voice is this I hear | L |
| Buoyant as morning and as morning clear | M |
| Say has some wet bird haunted English lawn | N |
| Lent it the music of its trees at dawn | N |
| Or was it from some sun fleck'd mountain brook | O |
| That the sweet voice its upland clearness took | O |
| Ah it comes nearer | I |
| Sweet notes this way | P |
| - | |
| Hark fast by the window | H |
| The rushing winds go | H |
| To the ice cumber'd gorges | Q |
| The vast seas of snow | H |
| There the torrents drive upward | R |
| Their rock strangled hum | A |
| There the avalanche thunders | S |
| The hoarse torrent dumb | A |
| I come O ye mountains | G |
| Ye torrents I come | A |
| - | |
| But who is this by the half open'd door | T |
| Whose figure casts a shadow on the floor | T |
| The sweet blue eyes the soft ash colour'd hair | J |
| The cheeks that still their gentle paleness wear | J |
| The lovely lips with their arch smile that tells | U |
| The unconquer'd joy in which her spirit dwells | U |
| Ah they bend nearer | I |
| Sweet lips this way | P |
| - | |
| Hark the wind rushes past us | K |
| Ah with that let me go | H |
| To the clear waning hill side | D |
| Unspotted by snow | H |
| There to watch o'er the sunk vale | V |
| The frore mountain wall | W |
| Where the nich'd snow bed sprays down | X |
| Its powdery fall | W |
| There its dusky blue clusters | S |
| The aconite spreads | Y |
| There the pines slope the cloud strips | Z |
| Hung soft in their heads | Y |
| No life but at moments | A2 |
| The mountain bee's hum | A |
| I come O ye mountains | G |
| Ye pine woods I come | A |
| - | |
| Forgive me forgive me | F |
| Ah Marguerite fain | B2 |
| Would these arms reach to clasp thee | F |
| But see 'tis in vain | B2 |
| - | |
| In the void air towards thee | F |
| My strain'd arms are cast | C2 |
| But a sea rolls between us | K |
| Our different past | C2 |
| - | |
| To the lips ah of others | S |
| Those lips have been prest | D2 |
| And others ere I was | E2 |
| Were clasp'd to that breast | D2 |
| - | |
| Far far from each other | I |
| Our spirits have grown | F2 |
| And what heart knows another | I |
| Ah who knows his own | F2 |
| - | |
| Blow ye winds lift me with you | G2 |
| I come to the wild | H2 |
| Fold closely O Nature | I |
| Thine arms round thy child | H2 |
| - | |
| To thee only God granted | I2 |
| A heart ever new | G2 |
| To all always open | J2 |
| To all always true | G2 |
| - | |
| Ah calm me restore me | F |
| And dry up my tears | K2 |
| On thy high mountain platforms | L2 |
| Where Morn first appears | M2 |
| - | |
| Where the white mists for ever | I |
| Are spread and upfurl'd | I2 |
| In the stir of the forces | N2 |
| Whence issued the world | I2 |
