I built my house beside the wood
So I could hear you singing
And it was sweet and it was good
And love was all beginning
Fare thee well my nightingale
'Twas long ago I found you
Now all your songs of beauty fail
The forest closes 'round you

Fare thee well my nightingale
I lived but to be near you
Tho' you are singing somewhere still
I can no longer hear you
