Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere,
Now only I and my solitude,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere.
Sleep descends, as tears well forth,
Awake, then, in the midst of dreams,
Sleep descends, as tears well forth,
Awake, then, in the midst of dreams,
Remembering the shame that's been,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere.
Watching weddings come and go,
The nights of separation blush,
But, O ill-starred one, you do not blush,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere.
I am a moonless moon, adrift,
My parting bare, a bride I am,
I am a moonless moon, adrift,
My parting bare, a bride I am,
Who has witnessed my languid sighs?
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere,
Now only I and my solitude,
Go, weep your song, O oboe, elsewhere.
