Listen to the Mockingbird

I'm dreaming now of Hally, sweet Hally, sweet Hally;
I'm dreaming now of Hally,
For the thought of her is one that never dies:
She`s sleeping in the valley, the valley, the valley
She`s sleeping in the valley,
And the mocking bird is singing where she lies.

(Chorus)
Listen to the mocking bird,
Listen to the mocking bird,
The mocking bird still singing o'er her grave;
Listen to the mocking bird,
Listen to the mocking bird,
Still singing where the weeping willows wave.

 

Ah! well I yet remember, remember, remember
Ah! well I yet remember,
When we gather'd in the cotton side by side;
'Twas in the mild September, September, September,
'Twas in the mild September,
And the mocking bird was singing far and wide.

 ☆American Folk Song으로 Abraham Lincoln대통령이 좋아하였던 곡이라 합니다. 

 "Listen to the Mocking Bird" (1855) is an American folk song of the mid-19th century.

Its lyrics were composed by Septimus Winner under the pseudonym "Alice Hawthorne",

and its music was by Richard Milburn.

It relates the story of a singer dreaming of his sweetheart, now dead and buried, and a

mockingbird, whose song the couple once enjoyed, now singing over her grave.

Yet the melody is moderately lively.
