The Rose Of Allendale |
| The morning was fair, the sky’s were clear |
| No breath came over the sea |
| When Mare left her highland home |
| And wandered forth with me |
| Though flowere decked the mountain side |
| And fragrance filled the vale |
| By far the sweetest flower there |
| Was the rose of Allendale |
| Was the rose of Allendale |
| Was the rose of Allendale |
| By far the sweetest flower there |
| Was the rose of Allendale |
| Where’er I wandered east or west |
| Tho’faith began to lour |
| A solace still she was to me |
| In sorrow’s lonely hour |
| When tempest lashed our lonely barque |
| And rent her shivring sail |
| One maiden form withstood the storm |
| 'Twas the rose of Allendale |
| And when my fever’d lips were parched |
| On Afrie’s burning sands |
| She whispered hopes of happiness |
| And tales of distant lands |
| My life has been a wilderness |
| Unbiest by fortune’s gale |
| Had faith not linked my lot to hers |
| The rose of Allendale |
