Song : "Her Cheek is Like a Tinted Rose"

Her cheek is like a tinted roseThat June hath fondly cherished,Her heart is like a star that glowsWhen day hath darkling perished,Her voice is as a song-bird's sweet,The drowsy wolds awaking—But, ah, her love is past compare,And keeps my heart from breaking!

Lost sunbeams light her tresses free,Along their shadows gleaming,Her smiles entangle memoryAnd set the soul a-dreaming,Her thoughts, like seraphs, upward soar,Earth's narrow bounds forsaking—But, ah, her love abides with meAnd keeps my heart from breaking!
