(words by Edgar Allan Poe)



It was many and many a year ago 

In a kingdom by the sea 

That a maiden there lived whom you may know 

By the name of Annabelle Lee 

And this maiden she lived with no other thought 

Than to love and be loved by me 



I was a child and she was a child 

In this kingdom by the sea 

But we loved with a love that was more than love 

I and my Annabelle Lee 

With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven 

Coveted her and me 

And this was the reason that, long ago 

In this kingdom by the sea 

A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling 

My beautiful Annabelle Lee 

So that her highborn kinsman came 

And bore her away from me 

To shut her up in a sepulcher 

In this kingdom by the sea 



It was many and many a year ago 

In a kingdom by the sea 

That a maiden there lived whom you may know 

By the name of Annabelle Lee
