| With your restless eyes of fire | B |
| And why do you lean o'er the lilies pale | C |
| What more can your heart desire | B |
| - | |
| You've crimsoned the rays in the heart of the rose | D |
| You've drunk up the dewdrops all | E |
| And down in the meadows your golden light | F |
| Has gilded the daisies tall | E |

| The thirsty flowers that grow on the hill | G |
| Have given their lives to you | H |
| And what do you care you restless sun | A |
| As you sail through your seas of blue | H |
| - | |
| Your rays are so warm like the glances of love | I |
| The lily is mad with delight | F |
| And whispers her secret with silent joy | J |
| As she kisses my face in the night | F |
| - | |
| What more can you want O eager sun | A |
| I've given my all to you | H |
| I've counted my treasures and claimed them not | K |
| What more can I ever do | H |
| - | |
| But eager sun with your restless rays | L |
| Know this that I love not you | H |
| For the sun that knoweth a world of loves | M |
| To one can never be true | H |
