Lyrics:

Believe me, if all those endearing young charms 
Which I gaze on so fondly to-day, 
Were to change by to-morrow and fleet in my arms, 
Like fairy gifts fading away.

Thou wouldst still be adored as this moment thou art, 
Let thy loveliness fade as it will, 
And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart, 
Would entwine itself verdantly still. 
And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart, 
Would entwine itself verdantly still
