The valley bells ring
Their delicate heads fluttering
Like beads from a slender, dainty throat
Or winters’ snowflakes that dance and float
They are beautiful but fatal
For beneath those Snow White petals
Is a poison, ingested, you’ll wind up dead
By destruction of your heart or head
So beware the Tears of Our Lady
Beware The bells of May
For her sweet smell and stark beauty may lead you astray

The valley bells ring
Their delicate heads fluttering
Like beads from a slender, dainty throat
Or winters’ snowflakes that dance and float
They are beautiful but fatal
For beneath those Snow White petals
Is a poison, ingested, you’ll wind up dead
By destruction of your heart or head
So beware the Tears of Our Lady
Beware The bells of May
For her sweet smell and stark beauty may lead you astray
