The Foggy DewAs to Shannon's side I return'd at last And the heart in my breast for the girl I lov'd best Was beating, ah, beating, loud and fast! While the doubts and the fears of the long aching years Seem'd mingling their voices with the moaning flood Till full in my path, like a wild water wrath My true love's shadow lamenting stood.
But the sudden sun kiss'd the cold, cruel mist
And the girl I love best on my wild throbbing breast |
