1. The "whippoorwill" sang for mate in the grove, And the night-winds were wafting the strains of his love; The moon kept her watch o'er the lands, o'er the sea. And her beams kissed the sweet face of Anna Marye!
[CHORUS] I sat at her feet and I gazed on her face And no stain of the earth on its features could trace; Like the stars up above shone that fair brow to me, Not a moon beam looked gentler than Anna Marye!
2. Oh! her eye it smiles kindly on all it looks on. And her voice oh! how softly bewitching in tone; Her heart is a treasure which peerless will be, To him who shall win the sweet Anna Marye!
[CHORUS] O'er all the wide world if there can be one found To bring tears to those eyes, or that bosom to wound; How lost to all good and how hardened must be The heart that could harm thee, sweet Anna Marye!
