Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBAADEEDAADCCFCC F GGHIID CCH| Lightly Alpine rover | A |
| Tread the mountains over | A |
| Rude is the path thou'st yet to go | B |
| Snow cliffs hanging o'er thee | C |
| Fields of ice before thee | C |
| While the hid torrent moans below | B |
| Hark the deep thunder | A |
| Thro' the vales yonder | A |
| 'Tis the huge avalanche downward cast | D |
| From rock to rock | E |
| Rebounds the shock | E |
| But courage boy the danger's past | D |
| Onward youthful rover | A |
| Tread the glacier over | A |
| Safe shalt thou reach thy home at last | D |
| On ere light forsake thee | C |
| Soon will dusk o'ertake thee | C |
| O'er yon ice bridge lies thy way | F |
| Now for the risk prepare thee | C |
| Safe it yet may bear thee | C |
| Tho' 'twill melt in morning's ray | F |

| Hark that dread howling | G |
| 'Tis the wolf prowling | G |
| Scent of thy track the foe hath got | H |
| And cliff and shore | I |
| Resound his roar | I |
| But courage boy the danger's past | D |
| - | |
| Watching eyes have found thee | C |
| Loving arms are round thee | C |
| Safe hast thou reached thy father's cot | H |
