Aura Lee

Willow TreeBlackbird
As the blackbird in the spring,
'neath the willow tree,
Sat and piped, I heard him sing,
Sing of Aura Lee.
Maid with Golden Hair
Aura Lee, Aura Lee,
Maid with golden hair,
Sunshine came along with thee,
And swallows in the air.
In her blush the rose was born,
'twas music when she spake.
In her eyes the light of morn,
Sparkling seemed to break.
Wintry Wind
Aura Lee, Aura Lee,
Maid with golden hair,
Sunshine came along with thee,
And swallows in the air.
Aura Lee, the bird may flee,
The willow's golden hair,
Then the wintry winds may be,
Blowing everywhere.
Maid with Golden Hair
Aura Lee, Aura Lee,
Maid with golden hair,
Sunshine came along with thee,
And swallows in the air.

Birds in the Air
Yet if thy blue eyes I see,
Gloom will soon depart.
For to me, sweet Aura Lee,
Is sunshine to the heart.
Aura Lee, Aura Lee,
Maid with golden hair,
Sunshine came along with thee,
And swallows in the air.
