I dreamed that the moon looked sadly down.<br />

And the stars with a troubled ray;<br />

I went to my sweetheart's home—the town<br />

Lies many a league away.<br />

My longing led me before her door;<br />

I kissed the stone steps brown.<br />

That her feet had touched in the days of yore.<br />

And the trailing hem of her gown.<br />

The night was long, the night was cold,<br />

Ice-cold did the stone steps seem.<br />

In the window her own wan face, behold!<br />

Illumed by the moon's pale beam.<br />
