Lyrics

Would god i were the tender apple blossom, gliding by so cold Air, while sun and shade you robe of lawn will dapple
That floats and falls from off the twisted bough, would to god i were among the roses
Within your silken bosom as that does now, might press me going even unto death, while on the lowest branch a bud uncloses
That floats and falls from off the twisted bough, a bud uncloses Londonderry, a bud uncloses
a happy daisy
Would i were growing, to touch you
a bud uncloses

would to god i were among the roses
would god i were the tender apple blossom
while sun and shade you robe of lawn will dapple
That so your silver foot might press me going, while sun and shade you robe of lawn will dapple
A happy daisy, would to god i were among the roses Griffin, gliding by so cold
Your robe of lawn, your robe of lawn
To lie and faint within your silken bosom, or would i were a little burnish d apple The, or would i were a little burnish d apple

to touch you
And you hair s spun gold, a happy daisy
While sun and shade you robe of lawn will dapple, that lean to kiss you as you float between
might press me going even unto death
Your robe of lawn, in the garden path
Would to god i were among the roses, a bud uncloses, that so your silver foot might press me going
To touch you, or would i were a little burnish d apple, might press me going even unto death

That lean to kiss you as you float between, and you hair s spun gold
While on the lowest branch a bud uncloses, would god i were the tender apple blossom
To touch you, and you hair s spun gold
Or would i were a little burnish d apple, or would i were a little burnish d apple Griffin, to lie and faint within your silken bosom
