I'm a rose of Sharon
A Lily of the valley
As a lily grown among the thorns

Love in this world has found me
As an apple tree among the trees
That grow deep in the forest

My lover's form in comely
With live and limb most joyous
Rise up my love and come away

The rain is over and gone
Your love is the fruit of my darkest day
And I'm your Rose of Sharon

His gentle hand lies under my head
His shoulders turn to face me
I shall not stir him from my bed

While he does so embrace me
Oh bring me wine to pass the time
Though non but him can soothe me

I am my beloved's and he is mine
Desire for his pleasure moves me
Rise up my love and come away

The rain is over and gone
Your love is the fruit of my darkest day
And I'm your Rose of Sharon
