The cactus and the aloe bloomA
Beneath the window of your roomA
Your window where at evenfallB
Beneath the twilight's first pale starC
You linger tall and spiritualB
And hearken my guitarC
-
It is the hourD
When every flowerD
Is wooed by moth or beeE
Would would you were the flower dearF
And I the moth to draw you nearF
To draw you near to meE
My dearF
To draw you near to meE

-
The jasmine and bignonia spillB
Their balm around your windowsillB
The sill where when magnolia whiteH
In foliage mists the moon hangs farC
You lean with bright deep eyes of nightH
And hearken my guitarC
-
It is the hourD
When from each flowerD
The wind woos fragrancesI
Would would you were the flower loveJ
And I the wind to breathe aboveJ
To breathe above and kissK
My loveJ
To breathe above and kissK
