[00:08.63]There is not in the wide world a valley so sweet
[00:17.81]As that vale in whose bosom the bright waters meet
[00:26.92]Oh the last rays of feeling and life must depart
[00:35.98]Ere the bloom of that valley shall fade from my heart
[00:45.26]Ere the bloom of that valley shall fade from my heart
[00:58.61]Yet it was not that nature had shed o'er the scene
[01:07.86]Her purest of crystal and brightest of green
[01:17.04]Twas not her soft magic of streamlet or hill
[01:26.64]Oh no twas something more exquisite still
[01:36.06]Oh no twas something more exquisite still
[01:49.55]Sweet vale of avoca how calm could I rest
[01:58.72]In thy bosom of shade with the friends I love best
[02:08.08]Where the storms that we feel
[02:11.93]In this cold world should cease
[02:17.48]And our hearts like thy waters be mingled in peace
[02:28.67]And our hearts like thy waters be mingled in peace
[02:48.73]
