Sweet are the banks when spring perfumes
Sweet are the banks when spring perfumes
The verdant plants and laughing flow'rs,
The verdant plants and laughing flow'rs,
Line 32: Line 30:
That fans the golden orange grove;
That fans the golden orange grove;
But oh, how sweeter far than these,
But oh, how sweeter far than these,
Are the dear smiles of her I love.
Are the dear smiles of her I love.}}

Sweet are the banks when spring perfumes
The verdant plants and laughing flow'rs,
Fragrant the violet as it blooms,
And sweet the blossoms after show'rs.

Sweet is the soft, the sunny breeze,
That fans the golden orange grove;
But oh, how sweeter far than these,
Are the dear smiles of her I love.
