Where the shadowy branches wave

O’er a rude and moss-grown tomb,

Is an Indian maiden’s grave:

None knoweth that music-haunted spot⁠—

Save a far-off one, who forgets it not.

He dreams of that silent shore⁠—

’Tis a holy spot to him,

A solemn stillness broodeth o’er

Those forest-aisles so dim;

Bird-music, and wave-melody,
