Luranah

I waited and watch'ed her coming the twilight sinking fast

I stood list'ning in the gloaming the river flowing past

Lapping and sighing so lightly swiftly it cours'd by me

While the moonbeams dancing brightly gilding its way to the sea

Oh darling thy future in life's ebb and flow

Shall pass as that river

Doth peacefully flow

Joyous and happy thy young life with me

Shall glide as that river

Flow on to the sea

She came I clasp'd her fondly and smil'd with sweet content

I ask'd her in that gloaming to give the fond consent

whisper'd and breath'd so lightly like Heav'n it came to me

While the river sparkling brightly Echo'd that yes to the sea

Oh darling thy future in life's ebb and flow

Shall pass as that river

Doth peacefully flow

Joyous and happy thy young life with me

Shall glide as that river

Flow on to the sea
