The Rose of Allendale |
The moon was bright, the night was clear |
No breeze came over the sea |
When mary left her highland home |
And wandered forth with me |
The flowers be-decked the mountainside |
And fragrance filled the vale |
But by far the sweetest flower there |
Was the rose of allendale |
Oh the rose of allendale |
Sweet rose of allendale |
By far the sweetest flower there |
Was the rose of allendale |
Where e’er I wandered east or west |
Though fate began to lour |
A solace still was she to me |
In sorrow’s lonely hour |
When tempests lashed our lonely barque |
And rent her quivering sail |
One maiden’s form withstood the storm |
'twas the rose of allendale |
Oh sweet rose of allendale |
Sweet rose of allendale |
One maiden’s form withstood the storm |
'twas the rose of allendale |
And when my fever’d lips were parched |
On afric’s burning sands |
She whispered hopes of happiness |
And tales of distant lands |
My life has been a wilderness |
Unblessed by fortune’s wheel |
Had fate not linked my love to hers |
The rose of allendale |
Oh sweet rose of allendale |
Sweet rose of allendale |
Had fate not linked my love to hers |
The rose of allendale |
