[00:03.15] |
Love is like the wild rose-briar, |
[00:06.28] |
Friendship like the holly-tree |
[00:09.14] |
The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms |
[00:12.22] |
But which will bloom most constantly? |
[00:17.06] |
The wild-rose briar is sweet in the spring, |
[00:20.58] |
Its summer blossoms scent the air; |
[00:23.40] |
Yet wait till winter comes again |
[00:26.33] |
And who will call the wild-briar fair? |
[00:30.66] |
Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now |
[00:33.93] |
And deck thee with the holly's sheen, |
[00:37.15] |
That when December blights thy brow |
[00:40.17] |
He may still leave thy garland green. |
