Meet Me by the Lilacs

Meet me by the lilacs
In the turn of the river's edge.
And there by night reveal to me
The worth of your heart's pledge.

Love me by the lilacs
In the warmth of springtime's glow.
Invest in me the strength to bare
The turmoil life can throw.

Marry me by the lilacs
Fulfill my one true wish
And never throw my heart away
But suspend me in true bliss.

Bring to me the lilacs
When my body fails the job.
Garnish my hair with the pretty flowers
And place them in my fob.

Bury me by the lilacs
In the shade of that purple tree
And may its fragrance bring you joy
Whenever you kneel by me.
