My true love and I did meet Down in the lavender garden Long ago, Oh, so long ago When he told me to close my eyes and listen to his lullaby.
My velvet dreams were carried across the melancholy air and finally found rest in the same old lavender blue. When he told me that only in midsummer would the lavender bloom just for me
My true love and I were deadly shades in the night and caressed each other lovingly Until my true love dropped off to sleep...
,, She wore black lace which kissed her pale skin As blinking stars passed through the restless night. Tangled in night roses and Moonlight when she slept beneath a blanket of dreams ,,
Dewdrops on the meadow reflect memories to the roses. Her sighs painted the sky of the North as the church bells echo in the tall trees*
*,, Oh, Anamaria, leave your floral meadows. And watch the reckless waves trying to escape the sea. Listen.... They sob for you lover, his soul lost at sea ,,
The night was dark, faded shadows of midnight blue. For the moon refuses to shine upon me, where the willow tree weeps bitterly. Can't you see I'm lonely? Oh Harvest Moon, so high above that broken diamond necklace. I wonder why you keep away, leaving me so lonely, On lonely nights when only the stars shine brighter. Oh please,shine on upon me, Do not hide, Oh Harvest Moon...
