[00:00.74] The ring is on my hand,
[00:05.17] And the wreath is on my brow;
[00:10.12] Satin and jewels grand
[00:15.09] Are all at my command,
[00:20.78] And I am happy now.
[00:31.02] And my lord he loves me well;
[00:35.61] But, when first he breathed his vow,
[00:39.77] I felt my bosom swell -
[00:44.09] For the words rang as a knell,
[00:47.96] And the voice seemed his who fell
[00:52.05] In the battle down the dell,
[00:56.58] And who is happy now.
[01:04.56] But he spoke to re-assure me,
[01:09.15] And he kissed my pallid brow,
[01:12.95] While a reverie came o'er me,
[01:17.28] And to the church-yard bore me,
[01:21.32] And I sighed to him before me,
[01:26.13] Thinking him dead D'Elormie,
[01:30.17] "Oh, I am happy now!"
[02:12.32] And thus the words were spoken,
[02:24.72] And this the plighted vow,
[02:28.51] And, though my faith be broken,
[02:33.02] And, though my heart be broken,
[02:37.42] Here is a ring, as token
[02:41.48] That I am happy now!
[02:49.82] Would God I could awaken!
[02:53.91] For I dream I know not how!
[02:57.75] And my soul is sorely shaken
[03:01.86] Lest an evil step be taken, -
[03:05.88] Lest the dead who is forsaken
[03:10.67] May not be happy now
