THE BANKS OF BANNA
S
HEPHERDS, I have lost my love,— Have you seen my Anna ? Pride of every shady grove On the banks of Banna. I for her my home forsook,
Near yon misty mountain, Left my flocks, my pipe, my crook, Greenwood shade, and fountain.
Never shall I see them more
Until her returning; All the joys of life are o'er —
Gladness changed to mourning. Whither is my charmer flown ?
Shepherds, tell me whither ? Woe is me, perhaps she's gone
Forever and forever ! |
