He is gone on the mountain | B |
He is lost to the forest | C |
Like a summer dried fountain | B |
When our need was the sorest | C |
The font reappearing | D |
From the rain drops shall borrow | E |
But to us comes no cheering | D |
To Duncan no morrow | E |
- | |
The hand of the reaper | F |
Takes the ears that are hoary | G |
But the voice of the weeper | G |
Wails manhood in glory | G |
The autumn winds rushing | D |
Waft the leaves that are searest | C |
But our flower was in flushing | D |
When blighting was nearest | C |
- | |
Fleet foot on the correi | G |
Sage counsel in cumber | G |
Red hand in the foray | G |
How sound is thy slumber | G |
Like the dew on the mountain | B |
Like the foam on the river | G |
Like the bubble on the fountain | B |
Thou art gone and for ever | G |
