They say the world's a flower | B |
And still I linger lonely | C |
Within a barren bower | B |

I weave a web of fancies | D |
Of tears and darkness spun | E |
How shall I sing of sunlight | F |
Who never saw the sun | E |

I hear the pipes a blowing | A |
But yet I may not dance | G |
I know that Love is passing | A |

And I with groping dim | H |
Should reach his place of calling | A |
And stretch my arms to him | H |

For Joy that I shall miss | J |
The rain would fall upon my mouth | K |
That his will never kiss | J |
