Henry Lawson - The Song And The Sigh
Work rating: Low

The creek went down with a broken song, 
    `Neath the sheoaks high; 
The waters carried the song along, 
    And the oaks a sigh. 
 
The song and the sigh went winding by, 
    Went winding down; 
Circling the foot of the mountain high, 
    And the hillside brown. 
 
They were hushed in the swamp of the Dead Man`s Crime, 
    Where the curlews cried; 
But they reached the river the self-same time, 
    And there they died. 
 
And the creek of life goes winding on, 
    Wandering by; 
And bears for ever, its course upon, 
    A song and a sigh.
