<poem>
In a green arbour, down by the water side,
There as I lay, I heard a bird complain:
‘Sweet, sweet is love in the flowering springtime,
but O flown, flown in the cold autumn rain.’


In a green arbour, down by the water side,<br>
I turned as I lay, and looked at my loved one
There as I lay, I heard a bird complain:<br>
Lying there lightly, and breathing so near,  
‘Sweet, sweet is love in the flowering springtime,<br>
And in the first sunlight ashift through the branches
but O flown, flown in the cold autumn rain.’<br>
I learned me by heart the looks of my dear.
<br>
 
I turned as I lay, and looked at my loved one<br>
Though fate should bereave me, or fickle love leave me,
Lying there lightly, and breathing so near,<br>
I hold my love safely, where nothing can us part,
And in the first sunlight ashift through the branches<br>
And it still springtime, and the birds still carolling,
I learned me by heart the looks of my dear.<br>
In the green aisles of memory, deep in my heart.
<br>

Though fate should bereave me, or fickle love leave me,<br>
I hold my love safely, where nothing can us part,<br>
And it still springtime, and the birds still carolling,<br>
In the green aisles of memory, deep in my heart.<br>

In a green arbour, down by the water side,
There as I lay, I heard a bird complain:
‘Sweet, sweet is love in the flowering springtime,
but O flown, flown in the cold autumn rain.’

I turned as I lay, and looked at my loved one
Lying there lightly, and breathing so near,
And in the first sunlight ashift through the branches
I learned me by heart the looks of my dear.

Though fate should bereave me, or fickle love leave me,
I hold my love safely, where nothing can us part,
And it still springtime, and the birds still carolling,
In the green aisles of memory, deep in my heart.
