Call, hills, with me

my old friends who I have known

since I could walk

could slip through the small door

and be gone.

Oh hills my beloved hills

Call with me!

Add your voice to mine!

Throw my sorrow and need

from crest to crest.

Let your long green sounds

sink down your swelling sides

and soak the valleys in it's sonorous blast.

O hills beloved hills

My beloved is gone

and I know not where.

Hills did he cross you?

Did you bend to let him by?

Have you seen my love walking?

He has escaped my wavering cry.

Hills my hills, you opened to let him free

Now close to cover me.
