A slumbering heart
Suddenly awoke
After a callous love dart
Its frail wings broke!
Moans, moans, moans
Day and night
Night and day
Oh! Ailing heart!
Hear love's sweet tones!
Let love heal thy wounds
The ailing heart sighs
The ailing heart cries:
'Love is joy and delight
Why then my feeble beating blight? ! '
Why make me weep at night! ?
The ailing heart sighs and sighs
For It tragically knew
Love is not its foe
That life dies!
Like a rose-
When not watered every dawn
With love's dew.
