| By the spreading branches made | B |
| Let us breathe the influence | C |

| Let your heart melt into mine | D |
| And your soul reach out to me | E |
| 'Mid the languors of the pine | D |
| And the sighing arbute tree | E |

| And when Night across the air | I |
| Shall her solemn shadow fling | J |
| Touching voice of our despair | I |
| Long the nightingale shall sing | J |
