June lavishes sweet-scented loveliness And sprinkles sunfilled wine on everything; The very leaves grow drunk with bliss and sing And every breeze becomes a soft caress.
All earthly things felicity confess And fairies dance in many a moonlit ring; The fleetfoot hours fresh wealth of joyaunce bring; Life wears her gayest rose-embroidered dress.
Kind June, why bear these golden gifts to me?
All winter long I hear the throstle’s tune, All winter long red roses I can see, Reading the while Love’s ancient magic rune.
In Love’s fair garden-close I wander free, So take your guerdon elsewhere, lovely June.
Loveland is fair to see, Of all kind havens best, Dwell here, my Sweet, with me.
Here flowers bloom for thee, Thy feet are rose-caressed, Loveland is fair to see.
The violets shall be Thy soft and fragrant nest, Dwell here, my Sweet, with me.
Thou shalt not lack for glee, Here life is but a jest; Loveland is fair to see.
None shall be glad as we; Ah, grant me my behest, Dwell here, my Sweet, with me.
Now would I ask my fee, Thy red heart I request; Loveland is fair to see, Dwell here, my Sweet, with me.
