| Not a charm can you discover | A |
| Would you see | B |
| The heart that a shut rose is | C |
| And whose beauty ne'er uncloses | C |
| Save for me | B |
| She is not rich or clever | A |
| But her speeches thrill me ever | A |
| And with bliss | C |
| My heart her whisper flutters | C |
| Though the wisest word she utters | C |
| Is a kiss | C |
| All evil things have shunned her | A |
| And with a wide eyed wonder | A |
| Is she tasked | D |
| What lavish god has given | E |
| In her earth so much of heaven | E |
| All unasked | D |
| She has no gifts or graces | C |
| But the gladness in her face is | C |
| Sought of kings | C |

| And she prefers to hie with | G |
| Me on earth | F |
| There is no hint of heaven | E |
| Or glimpse of deep thought even | H |
| In her eyes | C |
| She is warm and she is human | E |
| Just a weak and wilful woman | E |
| Not too wise | C |
| Her thousand beauties singing | I |
| I have not said how clinging | I |
| Are her arms | C |
| But not loved and not the lover | A |
| Dare you ever hope discover | A |
| Half her charms | C |
