2. Rising when the dawn still faint is   [sung text not yet checked]

Language: English 
Rising when the dawn still faint is,
  Asking, "Will she come?"
Late at eventide my plaint is,
  "Ah! she did not come!"

In the night-time with my sorrow
  Waking still I lie,
And the day-dream of the morrow
  Passes sadly by.
