The Song and the Sigh

The creek went down with a broken song,

'Neath the sheoaks high;

The waters carried the song along,

And the oaks a sigh.

The song and the sigh went winding by,

Went winding down;

Circling the foot of the mountain high,

And the hillside brown.

They were hushed in the swamp of the Dead Man's Crime,

Where the curlews cried;

But they reached the river the self-same time,

And there they died.

And the creek of life goes winding on,

Wandering by;

And bears for ever, its course upon,

A song and a sigh.
