| A song I never understood | A |
| Though sweet the music rang | B |
| - | |
| I held a lily white and fair | C |
| Its perfume was a song divine | D |
| A song like moonlight and clear air | C |
| No rose hued cloud like mine | D |
| - | |
| Beneath pale moon and wind winged skies | E |
| My lips were dumb as one drew near | F |
| Folded warm wings across my eyes | E |
| And whispered in my ear | G |

| He left a flame flower in my hand | H |
| And bade me sing as heretofore | I |

| His secret seals my dumb lips fast | J |
| My lily withered 'neath his wing | K |
| But now I understand at last | J |
| The song I used to sing | K |
