<poem>
::Lay a garland on my hearse,
Lay a garland on my hearse,
::Of the dismal yew,
Of the dismal yew,
::Maidens, willow branches bear,
Maidens, willow branches bear,
::Say I died true.
Say I died true.
<br>
   
   
::My love was false, but I was firm
My love was false, but I was firm
::From my hour of birth;
From my hour of birth;
::Upon my buried body lie
Upon my buried body lie
::Lightly, gentle earth.
Lightly, gentle earth.

Lay a garland on my hearse,
Of the dismal yew,
Maidens, willow branches bear,
Say I died true.
 
My love was false, but I was firm
From my hour of birth;
Upon my buried body lie
Lightly, gentle earth.
