O give me a cot in the land of the mountains,
Secluded Marioneth who name I love well
There let me abide amid torrents and fountains,
That leap on the hill-side and spring in the dell
 O would I might ramble all day through the meadows
Charmed by the soft murmurs of wandering bees
Or listen while evening is casting its shadows
To frolicking birds in the boughs of the trees
