Píseň: Willow Weep For Me
Willow weep for me, Willow weep for me, Bend your branches green, Along the stream that runs to sea. Listen to my plea, Listen willow and weep for me. Gone my lover's dream Lovely summer dream Gone and left me here To weep my tears into the stream. Sad as I can be, Hear me willow and weep for me. Whisper to the wind, And say that love has sinned To leave my heart a breaking And making a moan Murmur to the night, To hide her starry light, So none will find me sighing And crying, all alone. Oh weeping willow tree, Weep, in sympathy, Bend your branches down Along the ground and cover me, When the shadows fall, Bend oh willow and weep for me.
