歌词
When we two parted, in silence and tears
Half broken-hearted, to sever for years
Pale grew thy cheek and cold, colder thy kiss
Truly that hour foretold sorrow to this
The dew of the morning, sunk chill on my brow
It felt like the warning of what I feel now
Thy vows are all broken, and light is thy fame
I hear thy name spoken, and share in its shame
They name thee before me, a knell to mine ear
A shudder comes o'er me, why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee, who knew thee too well
Long, long shall I rue thee, too deeply to tell
In secret we met, in silence I grieve
That thy heart could forget, thy spirit deceive
If I should meet thee, after long years
How should I greet thee? With silence and tears
