morn was bright, the steeds were light,
 * The wedding guests were gay;

Young Ellen stood within the wood
 * And watched them pass away.

She scarcely saw the gallant train,
 * The tear-drop dimmed her ee;

Unheard the maiden did complain
 * Beneath the Willow tree.

"O Robin, thou didst love me well,
 * Till on a bitter day

She came, the Lady Isabel,
 * And stole my Love away.

My tears are vain, I live again
 * In days that used to be,

When I could meet thy welcome feet
 * Beneath the Willow tree.
