| Can’t you hear the night birds crying
|
| Can’t you hear the lonesome dove
|
| Saying, «Won't you come back, darling
|
| To the only one you love
|
| Meet me out on the mountain
|
| Underneath the lonesome pine
|
| There we vowed we’d love each other
|
| Darling, say won’t you be mine
|
| Pretty mountain laurels blooming
|
| Pretty wildwood flowers grow
|
| There we vowed we’d love each other
|
| In our childhood long ago
|
| Then I left my little darling
|
| Lord, I wandered for too long
|
| Many nights I longed to see her
|
| Now I’m on my way back home |
