Marguerite

C. Converse

The merry bells shall ring,

Marguerite;

The little birds shall sing,

Marguerite

You smile, but you shall wear

Orange blossoms in your hair,

Marguerite!

Ah me! the bells have rung

Marguerite;

The little birds have sung,

Marguerite

But cypress leaf and rue

Make a sorry wreath for you,

Marguerite!
