“As I wander by Shannon's side.”
As I wander by Shannon's side. At the close of an Autumn day; Fond thoughts of my lover bide, As thy trees in the soft wind playWhisp'ring leaves on an Autumn eve,
What can your message be?
Whisper as you're gently falling,
Is my true love calling, Whisper that I may see.
Oh, what says your gentle voice; What does your fancy see? Is my love, my dear love, coming back to me?
Whisp'ring me?(continues on next page)- Collector
