Alone I wander, for 'tis so decreed.
My only peace is from the stars above,
And yet, with all my heart and soul, I plead
For just a little love.

Mem'ry alone is all I have to guide me,
Mem'ry and you, ah love of all the world,
And then the night, her welcome shade to hide me,
When all my sails are furled.

Composition:

    Set to music by Harriet Ware (1877 - 1962), "Alone I wander"
