Aura Lee

 


As the Blackbird 
In the Spring,
Neath the Willow Tree,
 
Sat and piped, 
I heard him sing;
Sing of Aura Lee.

Aura Lee, Aura Lee,  
Maid with golden Hair 

Sunshine came along with thee   
And Swallows in the Air. 
 
In thy Blush 
The Rose was born,     
Music when you spake. 

Through thine pretty Eyes, 
The Morn,
Sparkling seemed to break. 

Aura Lee, Aura Lee, 
Birds of crimson Wing 

Never Song have sung to me  
As in that Night, sweet Spring. 
 
Aura Lee, 
The Bird may flee   
The willow's golden Hair 

Swing through Winter 
Fitfully, 
On the stormy Air. 
         
Yet if thy 
Blue Eyes I see,  
Gloom will soon depart. 

For to me, 
Sweet Aura Lee is  
  Sunshine through the Heart. 
 
        
When the Mistletoe 
Was green,
Midst the Winter's Snows 
        
Sunshine in thy Face 
Was seen 
Kissing Lips of Rose. 
  
Aura Lee, Aura Lee,  
Take my golden Ring. 

Love and Light return with thee, 
And Swallows with the Spring.
