'Twas an eve in late summer,
Autumn was nigh.
Still a warm sun did colour the sky.
The meadows did shine
in a strange golden light,
and vales did send forth
the soft haze of night.

When through the air
a voice did resound,
Beckoning the shepherd
to rise from the ground.

"What sweet voice does sing
in such a woebegone tone?
What maiden does wander
the heather alone?"


Bewitched by its tone,
He followed her song,
whilst the sun did descend
and the shadows grew long.
In the dim light of dusk,
Near the sparkling cascade,
On a moss-covered stone
sat a crying young maid.

"Why art thou dreary?
What happened to thee?
What song didst thou sing
so woefully?"

"Go whither O shepherd!
Don't sadden thine heart.
Thou canst not help me -
not thou who thou art!
An old man who's been born
in a cradle of wood,
Of a tree that at least
a hundred years stood,
Cut by a boy who at heart
was still pure -
might be my redeemer
if he knew that he could..."
