The birds sleeping gently,  
The birds sleeping gently,
Sweet Luna gleameth bright,
Sweet Luna gleameth bright,
Her rays tinge the forest,  
Her rays tinge the forest,
And all seems glad tonight.
And all seems glad tonight.
The wind sighing by me,  
The wind sighing by me,
Cooling my fevered brow;
Cooling my fevered brow;
The stream flows as ever,  
The stream flows as ever,
Yet Alice, Where art thou?
Yet Alice, Where art thou?
One year back this even,  
One year back this even,
And thou wert by my side,  
And thou wert by my side,
One year back this even,  
One year back this even,
And thou wert by my side.
And thou wert by my side.
Vowing to love me;  
Vowing to love me;
One year past this even
One year past this even
And thou wert by my side,  
And thou wert by my side,
Vowing to love me,
Vowing to love me,
Alice, What e'er might betide!
Alice, What e'er might betide!


The silver rain falling,  
The silver rain falling,
Just as it falleth now,  
Just as it falleth now,
And all things slept gently,  
And all things slept gently,
Oh! Alice, where art thou?
Oh! Alice, where art thou?
I've sought thee by lakelet,  
I've sought thee by lakelet,
I've sought thee on the hill;
I've sought thee on the hill;
And in the pleasant wildwood,  
And in the pleasant wildwood,
When winds blow cold and chill.
When winds blow cold and chill.
I've sought thee in forest,  
I've sought thee in forest,
I'm looking heav'nward now.
I'm looking heav'nward now.
Oh! there 'mid the starshine;  
Oh! there 'mid the starshine;
I've sought thee in forest
I've sought thee in forest
I'm looking heav'nward now,  
I'm looking heav'nward now,
Oh! there amid the starshine
Oh! there amid the starshine
Alice I know, art thou!}}

The birds sleeping gently,
Sweet Luna gleameth bright,
Her rays tinge the forest,
And all seems glad tonight.
The wind sighing by me,
Cooling my fevered brow;
The stream flows as ever,
Yet Alice, Where art thou?
One year back this even,
And thou wert by my side,
One year back this even,
And thou wert by my side.
Vowing to love me;
One year past this even
And thou wert by my side,
Vowing to love me,
Alice, What e'er might betide!

The silver rain falling,
Just as it falleth now,
And all things slept gently,
Oh! Alice, where art thou?
I've sought thee by lakelet,
I've sought thee on the hill;
And in the pleasant wildwood,
When winds blow cold and chill.
I've sought thee in forest,
I'm looking heav'nward now.
Oh! there 'mid the starshine;
I've sought thee in forest
I'm looking heav'nward now,
Oh! there amid the starshine
Alice I know, art thou!
