Lyrics: 
Her hair was like the beaten gold,
Or like the spider spinning;
It was in her you might behold
My joys and woes beginning.

Her eyes were like the diamond bright,
Her form was like was like the fairy
That flits across the woods at night,
And such was gentle Mary.

The dewy azure of her eyes
Was like a sunbeam glancing;
It thrill'd my soul with tender love
To see her smile entrancing.

Alas! inconstant as the breeze
That kisses ev'ry, ev'ry flower,
She frown'd on me, and now I dare
Not e'en approach her bower.
