11I sowed the seeds of love,I sowed the seeds of love,
22And I sowed them in the spring:It will blossom all in the spring,
33I gathered them up in the morning so soonIt will blossom in April,
44While the small birds so sweetly sing.in May, and in June,
5When the small birds do sweetly sing.

67My garden was planted wellMy gard'ner was standing by,
78With flowers everywhere.I asked him to choose for me,
89But I had not the liberty to choose for myselfHe chose me the lily, the violet and pink,
910Of the flowers that I love so dear.Each of them I refused all three.
1011
1112The gardener was standing by,The lily I did not like,
1213And I asked him to choose for me.Because it does fade so soon,
1314He chose for me the violet, the lily and the pink,The violet and pink I did both overlook,
1415But those I refused - all three.And so now I must bide till June.
1516
1617In June there's a red rosebud,In June there's a rosy bud,
1718And that is the flower for me.And it runs all over me,
1819I often times have plucked that red rosebudOf times I've been kissed by those red rosy lips,
1920Till I gained the willow tree.Till I gained the green willow tree.
21
22The willow tree will twist,
23And the willow tree will twine,
24And I wish that I was in that young man's arms,
25That has stolen this heart of mine.
