Ah! Happy Swain! Such bliss to me denying,

Fortune thy lot with envy bids me view;

Me, who from home and Spain an Exile flying,

Bid all I value, all I love, adieu.

No more mine ear shall list the well-known ditty

Sung by some Mountain-Girl, who tends her Goats,

Some Village-Swain imploring amorous pity,

Or Shepherd chaunting wild his rustic notes:

No more my arms a Parent’s fond embraces,

No more my heart domestic calm, must know;

Far from these joys, with sighs which Memory traces,

To sultry skies, and distant climes I go.
