Oh, I'll twine with my mingles and waving black hair 
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair 
And the myrtles so bright with emerald dew 
The pale and the leader and eyes look like blue. 
Oh, I'll dance, I will sing and my laugh shall be gay 
I will charm ev'ry heart, in his crown I will sway 
When I woke from my dreaming, idols were clay 
All portions of love then had all flown away. 
Oh, he taught me to love him and promised to love 
And to cherish me over all others above 
How my heart now is wond'ring misery can tell 
He's left me no warning, no words of farewell. 
Oh, he taught me to love him and called me his flow'are 
That was blooming to cheer him through life's dreary hour 
Oh, I'm longing to see him through life's dark hour 
He's gone and neglected this pale wild wood flower.
