Come into the garden Maud ,For the black bat night has flown

Come into the garden Maud ,I am here at the gate alone, I am here at the gate alone

For the woodbine spices are wafted abroad and the musk of the roses blown,

 for a breeze of morning moves and the planet of love is on high.

 

Beginning to faint in the light that she loves On a bed of daffodil sky

To faint in the light of the sun , she loves , to faint In the light and to die.

 

Come, come Come into the garden Maud,

For the black bat night has flown Come into the garden Maud

I am here at the gate alone, I am here at the gate alone,

I am here , at the gate alone,

 

Queen of the rosebud garden of girls, Come hither the dances are done

With gloss of stain and glimmer of pearls, Queen lily and rose in one

Shine out little head , running over with curls ,To the flowers and be their sun

Shine out, shine out and be their sun

 

Come into the garden Maud, for the black bat night has flown

Come into the garden Maud ,She is coming, my own , my sweet

Were it ever so even a tread, my heart would hear her and beat

Were it earth in an earthy bed

 

Come, my own my sweet,Come my own my sweet

Maud, Maud come

I’m here at the gate alone.
