I Hid My Love |
| I hid my love when young till I |
| Couldn’t bear the buzzing of a fly |
| I hid my love to my despite |
| Till I could not bear to look at light |
| I dare not gaze upon her face |
| But left her memory in each place |
| Wherever I saw a wild flower lie |
| I kissed and bade my love goodbye |
| I met her in the greenest dells |
| Where dewdrops pearl the wood bluebells |
| The lost breeze kissed her bright blue eye |
| The bee kissed and went singing by |
| A sunbeam found a passage there |
| A gold chain 'round her neck so fair |
| As secret as the wild bee’s song |
| She lay there all the summer long |
| I hid my love in field and town |
| Till even the breeze would knock me down |
| The bees seemed singing ballads over |
| The fly’s bass turned a lion’s roar |
| And even silence found a tongue |
| To haunt me all the summer long |
| The riddle nature could not prove |
| Was nothing else but secret love |
| Was nothing else but secret love |
