English text

Some ask'd me where the rubies grew,

And nothing [I did]* say,

But with my finger pointed to

The lips of Julia.

Some ask'd how pearls did grow, and where?

Then spake I to my girl,

To part her lips, and show me there

The quarelets of pearl.

One ask'd me where the roses grew,

I bade him not go seek;

But forthwith made my Julia show

A bud on either cheek.

Notes: * - Parry substitutes: "did I"

Lyrics: Robert Herrick - ( c 1591 - 1674 )
