I + 

Shed no tear! O shed no tear! + 

The flower will bloom another year. + 

Weep no more! O weep no more! + 

Young buds sleep in the root’s white core. + 

Dry your eyes! O dry your eyes, + 

For I was taught in Paradise + 

To ease my breast of melodies⁠— + 

Shed no tear. + 

Overhead! look overhead + 

’Mong the blossoms white and red⁠— + 

Look up, look up⁠—I flutter now + 

On this flush pomegranate bough. + 

See me! ’tis this silvery bill + 

Ever cures the good man’s ill. + 

Shed no tear! O shed no tear! + 

The flower will bloom another year. + 

Adieu, Adieu⁠—I fly, adieu, + 

I vanish in the heaven’s blue⁠— + 

Adieu, Adieu! + 
