Out of my lodge at eventide,
Among the sobbing pines,
Footsteps echo by my side,
A spirit face, a sign!
Twilight skies are all alight
Across the deep lagoon;
A face is breaking through the night,
My Indian maid, Pale Moon.
Speak to thy love forsaken,
Thy spirit matter throw,
Ere thou the great white dawn awaken,
And to the sea thou swingest low.
Then to the west I'll follow,
Across ther deep lagoon,
Swift as a flying arrow
To thy abode, Pale Moon.
