Undone in Sorrow

Over yonder in that graveyard
Where the wild, wild flowers grow
O there they lay my own true lover
She’s gone from me forever more

Fairer than the sweetest flower
Restless as the wildest wind
Born with a love deep as the ocean
This is the girl that I did win

I left her there, back in the mountains
To see the world, riches to claim
Oh when I returned no earthly treasure
Could ease this heart so full of pain

There so high up on that mountain
Beneath the little mound of clay
Oh the girl that I returned to marry
So still among the flowers lay

I’ll go away and I will wander
I’ll lay aside my earthly gains
But I’ll not envy the man with riches
Undone in sorrow I remain
Undone in sorrow I’ll remain
