The moon is up, and brightly<br />

Beams o'er the waters vast.<br />

I clasp my darling tightly;<br />

Our hearts are beating fast.<br />

In the dear child's bosom, nestling.<br />

Alone I lie on the sand.<br />

"Hear'st thou the wild winds rustling?<br />

Why trembles thy foam-white hand?"<br />

"That is no wild wind sighing.<br />

That is the mermaid's lay;<br />

And they are my sisters crying.<br />

Whom the sea swallowed one day."<br />
