¶Lyrics / Text

:A mellow bell pears near, :It has so sweet a sound; :I know a maiden dear :With voice as full and round :A sunlit alm shines clear, :With clover blossoms sweet; :There dwells my maiden dear :And there my love I meet. :There flying with no fear :The swallows pass all day, :And fast, my maiden dear, :Sees chamois haste away. :I cannot linger here, :I cannot wait below; :To seek my maiden dear. :I, to the alm must go. :The mountain's call I hear, :And up the height I bound; :I know my maiden dear :Will mark my Juchhé sound. :Rejoicing come I here :My flaxen-haired sweet-heart; :I love thee maiden dear, :Nay! Bid me not depart!
