«Annabel Lee» a poem by Edgar Allan Poe It was many and many a year ago In a kingdom by the sea That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee
And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me Oh, we were so young, younger than the breeze Children of the wide and wild sea
But we loved with a love that was more than love I and Annabel Lee With a love that each creature in Heaven or Hell Went envyin' my pretty girl and me
Oh please have mercy, wi th the human fate We're much too young, for the deathman's blade
But a chill wind blew and took her right away And through my tears I had to see That she was gone Taken all away from me
And the moon never beams without bringin' me dreams Of my beloved girl And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes Of my dear and faithful Annabel Lee
