Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EFFE GHHG IJJI KLLM NOON ABBA| Under the rose tree's dancing shade | A |
| There stands a little ivory girl | B |
| Pulling the leaves of pink and pearl | B |
| With pale green nails of polished jade | A |

| The white leaves flutter one by one | D |
| Down to a blue bowl where the sun | D |
| Like a great dragon writhes in gold | C |

| The white leaves float upon the air | E |
| The red leaves flutter idly down | F |
| Some fall upon her yellow gown | F |
| And some upon her raven hair | E |

| She takes an amber lute and sings | G |
| And as she sings a silver crane | H |
| Begins his scarlet neck to strain | H |
| And flap his burnished metal wings | G |

| She takes a lute of amber bright | I |
| And from the thicket where he lies | J |
| Her lover with his almond eyes | J |
| Watches her movements in delight | I |
| - | |
| And now she gives a cry of fear | K |
| And tiny tears begin to start | L |
| A thorn has wounded with its dart | L |
| The pink veined sea shell of her ear | M |
| - | |
| And now she laughs a merry note | N |
| There has fallen a petal of the rose | O |
| Just where the yellow satin shows | O |
| The blue veined flower of her throat | N |
| - | |
| With pale green nails of polished jade | A |
| Pulling the leaves of pink and pearl | B |
| There stands a little ivory girl | B |
| Under the rose tree's dancing shade | A |
