Lily on the river

My beautiful lily

By the riverside I met you

Blooming in the summer sun

Delicate and sweet lily

Eyes hath not seen thy beauty

The heavens replenish thy frame

Watered by the waters of Bonny

Framed like an enchanted artifact

Thy beauty casteth a spell upon me

Thy purity engulfs my soul

Let me caress thee O lily

Let me tend to you everyday

Let me prune you

Let me baptize you in my liquid

Let me lick the dust off your petals

Lily my lily

By the river you lay

Rising like the morning sun

Love me O Lily
