| This winsome maid demure and sweet | B |
| And envious saw the silken tresses | C |
| That seemed to give her cheeks caresses | C |
| And rapture felt that thrilled me through | D |
| When on me glanced those eyes of blue | D |
| From underneath the drooping lashes | C |
| That could not hide their azure flashes | C |
| And oh I dreampt of bliss divine | E |
| If she would be my Valentine | E |

| And visions of as fair a face | F |
| As painter's pencil e'er did trace | F |
| Would haunt the mind each waking hour | G |
| And slumber owned its magic power | G |
| Until I found by merest chance | H |
| That belladonna made the glance | H |
| And borrowed hair had lent its aid | I |
| For silken tresses of this maid | I |
| And padding paint did all combine | E |
| To make for me my Valentine | E |
