¶Lyrics / Text

A garland for our fairest, For her we love so well, We'll weave with flowers the rarest In garden and in dell. The daisy, like her gentle heart, So modest, pure and meek; The rose to match the blushing bloom That decks her dainty cheek. ''Thus blooming, sweetly blooming, ''Our garland bright shall go! ''Ah! when she sees ''We fain would please, ''Will she one smile bestow! The lily, like her fingers white, Whose lightest touch we prize! And violets for the liquid light, Within her dark blue eyes. But oh! no flower beneath the sun Can e'er to her impart The changeless love whose tendrils cling So closely round each heart. ''Thus blooming, sweetly blooming, ''Our garland bright shall go! ''Ah! when she sees ''We fain would please, ''Will she one smile bestow!
