O'ER flowery fields of waving maizeA
The breeze of morning lightly playsA
Arise my Zumia let us roveB
The cool and fragrant citron groveB
Fair nature spreads her lavish bloomC
And bids her zephyrs waft perfumeC
She breathes ambrosial odours rareD
With cassia fragrance fills the airD
And calls thee forth her sweets to shareD
My lovely maidE
We'll mark each aromatic flowerF
Expanding to the radiant hourF
We'll seek the scented orange bowerF
Or tam'rind shadeE
-
Now ere the fervid hours of dayG
Arise my Zumia haste awayG
Hark from yonder palmy groveB
Swells the choral song of loveH
There on every weeping sprayG
Warblers tune the melting layG
Morning's roseate hues are spreadingI
Balmy essence flowers are sheddingI
Nature smiles in green arrayG
My Zumia rise no more delayG
-
Now glitt'ring in the lucid raysA
The humming bird his wing displaysA
Floats on the sun beam and the galeJ
From spicy wood to myrtle valeJ
Flutters on light ethereal plumeC
In tints of orient beauty drestG
Steals honey from the glowing bloomC
And weaves the fairy nestG
-
I'll climb each tall aspiring treeK
To seek nectareous fruits for theeK
I'll cull the blossoms op'ning fairD
In blushing wreaths to bind thy hairD
For thee the streams in murmurs flowL
For thee the buds empurpling glowL
For thee the balmy zephyrs playG
Arise my Zumia haste awayG
