Rhyme Scheme: ABCBA DEFED GGCGG HHIHH JKHKL

O meet me to night by the bright starlightA
Now the pleasant Spring's begunB
My own dear maid by the greenwood shadeC
In the crimson set of the sunB
Meet me to nightA
-
The sun he goes down with a ruby crownD
To a gold and crimson bedE
And the falling dew from heaven so blueF
Hangs pearls on Phoebe's headE
Love leave the townD
-
Come thou with me 'neath the green leaf treeG
We'll crop the bonny sweet brereG
O come dear maid 'neath the hazlewood shadeC
For love invites us thereG
Come then with meG
-
The owl pops scarce seen from the ivy greenH
With his spectacles on I weenH
See the moon's above and the stars twinkle loveI
Better time was never seenH
O come my queenH
-
The fox he stops and down he dropsJ
His head beneath the grassK
The birds are gone we're all aloneH
O come my bonny lassK
Come O comeL
