Lyrics
- Dimly fade the stars at dawn
Softly glows the morning’s ray
Through the pines the West wind blows
Over mountains gray
From my lodge thin lines of smoke
Rise to heaven’s blue sky
To the hilltops lift thine eyes
Hear thy lover’s cry
Chorus
Through the forest, lone I’m roaming
My heart’s calling, Fallen Leaf
With the dawning, I am coming
To thy lodge, Fallen Leaf
Through the forest, lone I’m roaming
My heart’s calling, Fallen Leaf
With the dawning, I am coming
To thy lodge, Fallen Leaf
- When the woods are deep with snow
And the stars give forth no ray
Thou art then my Moon by night
And my Sun by day
When the Springtime blooms again
When the soft winds sigh
From the hills a voice you’ll hear
‘Tis thy lover’s cry
Coda
Hear My cry, Ah! Ah-hoo!
