| I have risen in the darkened valley
|
| The one who in my dreams
|
| Of twilight did stand
|
| And I am off by the moonlight
|
| The break of the morning
|
| I am leaving the mountains
|
| The mountains so grand
|
| I strayed to a place far from my home
|
| In search of a lover that I might adore
|
| And my heart it was aching
|
| For the forest so gentle
|
| But my longing for love was with me even more
|
| And many the comings I passed my eye over
|
| And many the moment I emptied the well
|
| Of beauty returned
|
| They sit with their smiles
|
| And eyes filled with laughter
|
| But sure in the end
|
| With myself waiting still
|
| But when I returned to the forest I found you in
|
| In valleys overshadowed
|
| By mountains so grand
|
| And I pray that god’s angels
|
| Ever protect you
|
| After their own sanctitude
|
| And I pray to keep safe
|
| Your little white heart
|
| And now I’m stationed
|
| Where the waterways are braking
|
| Far from the forest
|
| A love and to side
|
| And when I return
|
| It’s to leave me to my dear one
|
| In my lands in the mountain
|
| The mountains so grand |
