Song

Forget-Me-Not

By
L. E. L.

Music by
William Sterndale Bennett
Op.23 No.3


Wave that wand'rest singing by,
Bearing leaves and flow'rs with thee,
To the lady of my heart,
Waft a benison from me.

Wind that rov'st around the grove,
Kissing ev'ry flower nigh,
I'll send thee on a sweeter search,
Bear my own true love my sigh.

Bark that show'st my graven words,
Thine be yet a happier lot,
May'st thou meet my maiden's eye,
Bidding her "Forget me not!"
