With bright and joyous air | B |
Smoothes out with a skilful hand | C |
Her waves of golden hair | B |
But the tell tale roses on her cheek | D |
So changing yet so bright | E |
And downcast earnest eye betray | F |
New thoughts are hers to night | E |

Then say what is the fairy spell | G |
Around her beauty thrown | H |
Lending a new and softer charm | I |

Yet only once a passing cloud | S |
Rests on her girlish brow | T |
Her dark eye gleameth restlessly | U |

But quick as light and fleecy clouds | V |
Flit o'er a summer sky | W |
The shadow passeth from her brow | T |
The trouble from her eye | W |

In silvery tones she murmurs forth | X |
My heart is light and glad | Y |
Youth beauty hope are all mine own | H |
Then why should I be sad | Y |
To graver hearts leave graver thoughts | Z |
And all foreboding fears | M |
For me life's sunshine and its flowers | A2 |
I am too young for tears | O |
