Island Of Sorrows |
| She is far from the land where her young hero sleeps |
| While around her sweet lovers are sighing |
| But coldly she turns from their wooings and weeps |
| For her heart with his cold grave is lying |
| She sings the wild songs of her own native home |
| Every note which he so loved awaking |
| Ah but little they think who delight in her tones |
| How the heart of this young girl is breaking |
| Though he lived for his love it’s for his country he died |
| They were all that to life had entwined him |
| The tears of his country may never be dried |
| Nor long will his love stay behind him |
| So make her a grave where the sun goes to rest |
| And think on a glorious tomorrow |
| May it shine on her sleep like a smile from the West |
| From her own lovely Island of Sorrows |
