The fair Rosalie
Has lost her lover bold,
Is n't she unhappy,
Only fifteen years old!
He promised to return,—
The deep woods were to blame,—
But she has waited vainly;
The traitor never came.
"Nightingale that sings,
Nightingale that flies,
The fair Rosalie
Has lost her lover bold,
Is n't she unhappy,
Only fifteen years old!
He promised to return,—
The deep woods were to blame,—
But she has waited vainly;
The traitor never came.

Nightingale that flies,
