First Line: We often roamed the fields together, colleen and I
Last Line: Colleen and I.
Subject(s): Love - Loss Of
We often roamed the fields together,
Colleen and I;
But now she lies beneath the heather
As I pass by.
No more shall the morning greet us
Out in the rye;
No more the swamp hare defeat us --
Swift, though shy.
Upon the lake night's shroud is falling
And curlews cry;
We lived love's song my heart's recalling --
Colleen and I.
