ilvery gleamA
Among the herbs that hung aroundB
The borders of the winding streamA
The pretty stream the placid streamA
The softly gliding bashful streamA
-
A breeze came wandering from the skyC
Light as the whispers of a dreamA
He put the o'erhanging grasses byC
And softly stooped to kiss the streamA
The pretty stream the flattered streamA
The shy yet unreluctant streamA
-
The water as the wind passed o'erD
Shot upward many a glancing beamA
Dimpled and quivered more and moreE
And tripped along a livelier streamA
The flattered stream the simpering streamA
The fond delighted silly streamA
-
Away the airy wanderer flewF
To where the fields with blossoms teemA
To sparkling springs and rivers blueF
And left alone that little streamA
The flattered stream the cheated streamA
The sad forsaken lonely streamA
-
That careless wind came never backG
He wanders yet the fields I deemA
But on its melancholy trackG
Complaining went that little streamA
The cheated stream the hopeless streamA
The ever murmuring mourning streamA
