Variant Title(s): Andy's Love Song
Me who have sailed
Leagues across
Foam haunted
By the albatross,
Time now hath made
Remembered not:
Ay, my dear love
Hath me forgot.
Oh, how should she,
Whose beauty shone,
Keep true to one
Such long years gone?
Grief cloud those eyes! --
I ask it not:
Content am I --
She's me forgot.
Here where the evening
Ooboe wails,
Bemocking
England's nightingales,
Bravely, O sailor,
Take thy lot;
Nor grieve too much,
She's thee forgot!
