• Elgar: From the Bavarian Highlands Op. 27 - 5. On The Alm (Hoch Alp)

Caroline Alice Elgar, née Roberts (1848-1920), "On the alm"

A mellow bell peals near,
It has so sweet a sound;
I know a maiden dear
With voice as full and round.

A sunlight alm shines clear,
With clover blossoms sweet;
There dwells my maiden dear
And there my love I meet.

There flying with no fear
The swallows pass all day,
And fast, my maiden dear,
Sees chamois haste away.

I cannot linger here,
I cannot wait below;
To seek my maiden dear,
I, to the alm1 must go.

The mountain's call I hear,
And up the height I bound;
I know my maiden dear
Will mark my Juchhé2 sound.

Rejoicing come I here
My flaxen-haired sweet-heart;
I love thee maiden dear,
Nay! bid me not depart!
