[V. Forgive me, but I needs must press]
Forgive me, but I needs must press
One question, since I love you so;
And kiss me, darling, if it 's Yes,
And, darling, kiss me if it 's No!
One question, since I love you so;
And kiss me, darling, if it 's Yes,
And, darling, kiss me if it 's No!
It is about our marriage day,—
I fain would have it even here;
But kiss me if it 's far away,
And, darling, kiss me if it 's near!
I fain would have it even here;
But kiss me if it 's far away,
And, darling, kiss me if it 's near!
Ah, by the blushes crowding so
On cheek and brow, 't is near, I guess;
But, darling, kiss me if it 's No,
And kiss me, darling, if it 's Yes!
On cheek and brow, 't is near, I guess;
But, darling, kiss me if it 's No,
And kiss me, darling, if it 's Yes!

And with what flowers shall you be wed?
With flowers of snow? or flowers of flame?
But be they white, or be they red,
Kiss me, my darling, all the same!
With flowers of snow? or flowers of flame?
But be they white, or be they red,
Kiss me, my darling, all the same!
And have you sewed your wedding dress?
Nay, speak not, even to whisper low;
But kiss me, darling, if it 's Yes,
And, darling, kiss me if it 's No!
Nay, speak not, even to whisper low;
But kiss me, darling, if it 's Yes,
And, darling, kiss me if it 's No!
