blooming in the wildwood,
flower that is blooming there for me,
sweeter than the morning dew,
and I'll soon return to you,
when the sun was sinkin' low,
my true lover went to sail on the sea.
It was in the month of June,
and the roses were in bloom,
when he took me in his arms
You're a fire that is looming
a fire that is looming there for me,
sweeter than the morning dew
that I'll soon return to you.
from the captain on the sea,
and he told me my lover was dead.
Oh, the shock and surprise
made the teardrops in my eyes
when I thought about the last
You're a flower that is blooming
flower that is blooming there for me.
Sweeter than the morning dew,
and I'll soon return to you.
Now he's drowning in the sea,
and he can't come back to me.
When it's in the month of June
and the roses are in bloom
It seems that I can hear my lover say
Flower that's blooming there for me
Sweeter than the morning dew,
and I'll soon return to you.
You're a flower that is blooming there for me.
