Aura Lee
(Tune - Love Me Tender)
Ah, lovely maiden, come to me
As the blackbird in the spring 'neath the willow tree
Sat and piped, I heard him sing, singing 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 spoke,
Thru thine azure eye, the moon sparkling seemed to break.
Aura Lee, Aura Lee.
Birds of crimson wing
Darling never song have sung to me as in that bright sweet spring,
Aura Lee the bird may flee the willow's golden hair
Swing thru 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 thru the heart.
And 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,
My lovely Aura Lee.
