Every pure and tender feeling,

Though the lips with fear may falter:

     B                      E
E'en confiding smiles may alter

Oh! believe not in a smile!

If thy bosom heaves a sigh

For a fair and cherished maiden,

Mark the language of her eye

There each impulse of her soul

          D                 A   E
Beams for thee in truth and candor;

   B                      E
There her secret passions wander,

There remain beyond control.
