The fragrant leaf and small white flowerA
The fragile wreath my fingers twinedB
Amid your fleece in some lost hourA
Flown seaward with the summer windB
-
The fragile wreath my fingers twinedB
Still wafts a perfume wild and sweetC
Flown seaward with the summer windB
Within that place where laurels meetC
-
Still wafts a perfume wild and sweetC
Crushed by the limbs and breasts of loveD
Within that place where laurels meetC
Amid the ocean fronting groveE
-
Crushed by the limbs and breasts of loveD
Ever it mounts from bygone daysF
Amid the ocean fronting groveE
Where summer comes but never staysF
-
Ever it mounts from bygone daysF
The wild sweet memory we shareG
Where summer comes but never staysF
Drunk with a philter laden airG
-
The wild sweet memory we shareG
Amid your fleece in some lost hourA
Drunk with a philter laden airG
The fragrant leaf and small white flowerA
