Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
But look with love, a tender start,
But look with love, a tender start.
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart.
If love's gaze falls upon your face,
And love's reply you wish to embrace,
If love's gaze falls upon your face,
And love's reply you wish to embrace,
Then frown not there, with cold disgrace,
Then frown not there, with cold disgrace.
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart.
From afar, your eyes like arrows fly,
Before youth's fleeting moments die,
From afar, your eyes like arrows fly,
Before youth's fleeting moments die,
For love, a yearning must comply,
For love, a yearning must comply.
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart.
To none but you, my gaze will stray,
At your feet, my heart will stay,
To none but you, my gaze will stray,
At your feet, my heart will stay,
Forgive their faults, come what may,
Forgive their faults, come what may.
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart.
My love, believe, heed what I say,
You are my moon, I'm your moon's ray,
My love, believe, heed what I say,
You are my moon, I'm your moon's ray,
In love, a constant, new way,
In love, a constant, new way.
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
But look with love, a tender start,
But look with love, a tender start.
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart,
Of golden beauty, boast not your heart.
