Tell me, Daisy! as I pull
Thy petals in the sun,—
Does he love me? does he love me?
My Belovèd One!

Answer, Daisy! as I touch
Thy petals; tell my lot!
Does he love me? Yes! he loves me.
No! he loves me not.

Daisy! Daisy! once again.
True petals,—Love has won.
Does he love me? Yes! he loves me,
My Belovèd One!
