my lady's garden - roger quilter lyrics

Loading...

there is a garden that all sweets encloses
where my love is won’t to stray;
there blow the fairest flow’rs of may
and, lovelier yet, soft damask roses

there by her side among the flow’rs
would i might pass the days of june
fleeting the careless summer hours
whether by night or by noon

happy the nightingale that haunts its closes
telling his love as best he may:
freely he sings both night and day
and then at last in peace reposes

fairer than blossom red or white
lily or violet wet with dew
no flow’r that blooms the summer through
half so fair is to my sight

i saw her gath’ring matchless posies
yet were they not so sweet as she
would that my fortune were to be
as dear to her as are the roses
