| And the young and the lovely are there | B |
| To my heart while of all thou'rt the dearest | A |
| To my eyes thou'rt of all the most fair | B |
| They pass one by one | C |
| Like waves of the sea | D |
| That say to the Sun | C |
| See how fair we can be | D |
| But where's the light like thine | E |
| In sun or shade to shine | E |
| No no 'mong them all there is nothing like thee | D |
| Nothing like thee | D |

| Oft of old without farewell or warning | F |
| Beauty's self used to steal from the skies | G |
| Fling a mist round her head some fine morning | F |
| And post down to earth in disguise | G |
| But no matter what shroud | A |
| Around her might be | D |
| Men peeped through the cloud | A |
| And whispered 'Tis She | D |
| So thou where thousands are | H |
| Shinest forth the only star | H |
| Yes yes 'mong them all there is nothing like thee | D |
| Nothing like thee | D |
