Lyrics
One June morning through the meadow going
Doris found a little daisy growing
Blooming there, white and fair
Nodding in the pleasant summer air
Tell me, daisy, quickly, truly tell me
If my dear one loves me well
Will he be true till life is done?
Then she plucked the petals, one by one
“He loves me! he loves me not!
(Alas, to be deserted is love’s sorest smart)
He loves me, he loves me not!
(Be still, be still the rapid beating of my heart)
He loves me, he loves me not!
(Beware, oh little flow’ret, how you play your part!)
He loves me, he loves me not!
You lying little daisy, he loves me!
