This Band which bound thy yellow hair | B |
Is mine sweet girl thy pledge of love | C |
It claims my warmest dearest care | B |
Like relics left of saints above | C |

Oh I will wear it next my heart | D |
'Twill bind my soul in bonds to thee | E |
From me again 'twill ne'er depart | D |
But mingle in the grave with me | E |

The dew I gather from thy lip | F |
Is not so dear to me as this | G |
That I but for a moment sip | F |
And banquet on a transient bliss | G |

This will recall each youthful scene | H |
E'en when our lives are on the wane | I |
The leaves of Love will still be green | H |
When Memory bids them bud again | J |
