So red the rose, so blue the sky
So fresh the morning dew
So sweet the song of birds in the spring
So true my love for you

So bright the moon, so still the night
So wide the deep blue sea
So high the stars that shine up above
So true my love will be

Wherever fate may take you
Whatever time may bring
My love will not forsake you
My heart will always sing

So red the rose, so blue the sky
So fresh the morning dew
So sweet the song of birds in the spring
So true my love for you.
