Where
the gentle Avon flows,
And a trailing rambler grows,
There's a window
shining into the night,
And a casement curtain flutters and blows in candle
light

And a girl sits listening there
To a haunting old world
air
As if someone played so softly below.
All entranced, she hears that
sweet serenade of long ago

All the while her wonder grows
As that
music comes and goes
Ah. What magic makes this rare delight
Her calling
awakes the midsummer night

Who can it be playing out there,
Playing
for me such a sweet air!
Clavicord bells tinkling in time,
Why do you
chime? Why do you ring ding ding?
Tell me, minstrel; tell me the tale of love
you sing!

Phantom answer came there none,
But she waited on and
on
Till her window grew bright with dawn's early glow,
And that bygone
lover haunting the night was silent below.

He no longer played that sweet
serenade of long ago.
Sweet serenade of long ago
