In the garden the roses blow:
Thither, thither would I go
To hear the nightingale in song
All the night long.

By the bank of the stream
She is gathering lemons:
And thither would I go
To hear the nightingale in song
All the night long.

She was gathering lemons
To give to her love:
And thither would I go
To hear the nightingale in song
All the night long.

In a silken hat
To give to her love:
And thither would I go
To hear the nightingale in song
All the night long.
