Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBDB EBEBFBFB GHGHEBEB IJIJBBBB| Dropt here and there upon the flower | A |
| I love the dew to see | B |
| For then returns the even's hour | A |
| That is so dear to me | B |
| When silence reigns upon the plain | C |
| And night hides all or nearly | B |
| For then I meet the smiles again | D |
| Of her I love so dearly | B |
| - | |
| O how I love yon dusky plains | E |
| Though others there may be | B |
| As much belov'd by other swains | E |
| But none so dear to me | B |
| Their thorn buds smell as sweet the while | F |
| Their brooks may run as clearly | B |
| But what are they without the smile | F |
| Of her I love so dearly | B |
| - | |
| In yonder bower the maid I've met | G |
| Whom still I love to meet | H |
| The dew drops fall the sun has set | G |
| O evening thou art sweet | H |
| Hope's eye fain breaks the misty glooms | E |
| The time's expir'd or nearly | B |
| Ah faithful still and here she comes | E |
| Who could but love thee dearly | B |
| - | |
| Though till we meet 'neath fate's control | I |
| Who knows the luck that shall come | J |
| And then thou idol of my soul | I |
| We'll meet with happier welcome | J |
| I wish I had for sake of thee | B |
| A lord's estate or nearly | B |
| They soon should see who'd ladies be | B |
| And whom I love so dearly | B |
