Gone for Good
It was one quiet night
When I heard my beloved calling
Down the valley in the jungle fright,
I woke up, my heart failing,
And rushed down the valley with all might,
To rescue my darling, with all longing,
But when I arrived at the scary site,
I found her gone, my one and only darling.
I returned to my hut with this plight,
And began to cry, the whole night singing,
No sleep, awake without light,
Seeing her in that valley in all my mourning.
I still can’t rest, seeing my soul and spirit in a fight
Over my departed darling. I’m in this brimstone burning;
Arise, o my beloved,
Open your lips and quiet down this flite.
