In a wood led by lantern
My search is underway
 
Elizabeth, an angelic canter 
In soul as well as name

For the hatred of other girls
Was hid away

I cry and fear by candle light 
But still my wreaking brain
I know the shutterings of my heart 
Will not see her safe 

By night and day
And night again 
I am irked

And despite my love, 
From my search 
I return

Alone and vain 

Black Forest I proclaim!
Return my love at once 
Or witness our flame!

Again the trees are mocking me
So a torch I have brought

Oh you will be my cinder Ella 
Amongst these burning trees
And in the forest that once dwelled here 
Our fires will never cease
