Lyrics
Dim, dim is my eye As the dew-drop once clear Pale, pale is my cheek Ever wet with the tear And heavily heaves This soft breast, once so gay For William, my true love My William away! Sad. Sad was the hour When he bade me adieu While he hung on my bosom And vow'd to be true; My heart it seem’d bursting On that fatal day When the fast less'ning sail Bore my William away For honour my William Braved danger and toil And he fought and he fell With the Lord of the Nile To die for his country In glory's bright day My valiant sweet William Count never dismay Lament him, ye fair And lament him, ye brave Though unshrouded he lies And the sea is his grave; For the kind and true hearted The gallant and gay Lament, for my William’s For ever away!
