Love
My Summer
Translated by George Sigerson (1907) · From Bards of the Gael and Gall (1907)
Love
She's the White Flower of the Berry,
She's the Bright Bloom of the Cherry,
She's the fairest, noblest Maiden
That ever saw the day:
She's my pulse, my love, my pleasure,
She's the Apple's sweet bloom-treasure,
She's Summer 'mid the storm-time
'Tween Christmas and the May!
