| Around his dark neck ringing | B |

| And joy to her the fairest | E |

| Hail ye living speaking flowers | F |
| That breathe of her who bound ye | D |
| Oh 'twas not in fields or bowers | F |
| 'Twas on her lips she found ye | D |
| Yes ye blushing speaking flowers | F |
| 'Twas on her lips she found ye | D |
