My love is gone, carried away
By the wind that shakes the willow,
And all the land is beaten hard
By the wind that shakes the willow.
But I will hold her close to me
In heart and dearest memory,
And with her strength to steel my soul,
Her love to warm my heart-strings,
I will stand where we once sang,
Though cold wind shakes the willow.
