For I have wandered through thy flowery woods; Have roamed and read near Tallapoosa's stream; Have listened to Tallassee's warring floods, And wooed on Coosa's side Aurora's beam.
Uw lommerrijke wouden heb 'k dikwijls doorkruist; 'k Heb gedoold langs Uw liefelijke stroomen; Gehoord hoe uw water bij stormwinden bruist En bewonderend Aurora zien komen.
