| lyric | Therer by the river, all alone I slept.
And I saw in a dream a white lily grow, lovely white flow’r.
If it were real, I’d pluck it for my darling, press her to my brreast, kiss her so sweetly.
By the river, all alone, I slept. Oh, life is unkind, all my joys are gone, all my joys are gone, this is my last song. |
