Lyrics: John McMillan
Sweet bird of eve, whose love-sick note
I hear across the dale;
Who nightly, to the moon and me,
Dost chant thy melting tale;
Oh, hear a brother mourner's part!
To Delia's window fly;
Tell her I bleed for love of her,
For love of her I die.
Sweet bird of eve, whose love-sick note
I hear across the dale;
Who nightly, to the moon and me,
Dost chant thy melting tale;
Oh, hear a brother mourner's part!
To Delia's window fly;
Tell her I bleed for love of her,
For love of her I die.
