about

folksong arrangement by Benjamin Britten
(Molly, my Dear) (from Volume 4, Moore's Irish Melodies)

lyrics

At the mid hour of night when stars are weeping, I fly
To the lone vale we lov’d when life shone warm in thine eye;
And I think that if spirits can steal from the region of air,
To revisit past scenes of delight; Thou wilt come to me there,
And tell me our love is remembered e’en in the sky.

Then I’ll sing the wild song, which once ‘twas rapture to hear,
When our voices, both mingling, breathed like one on the ear,
And, as Echo far off thro’ the vale my sad orison rolls,
I think, Oh my Love! ‘tis thy voice from the kingdom of souls
Faintly answering still the notes which once were so dear!
