D E7When the blackbird in the spring,
A7 DOn the willow tree,
D E7Sat and rocked, I heard him sing,
A7 DSinging Aura Lea
D D7Aura Lea, Aura Lea,
G DMaid of golden hair;
D B7 E7Sunshine came along with thee,
A7 DAnd swallows in the air.
Chorus:
D D7Aura Lea, Aura Lea,
G DMaid of golden hair;
D B7 E7Sunshine came along with thee,
A7 DAnd swallows in the air.
In thy blush the rose was born,
Music when you spake,
Through thine azure eye the morn,
Sparkling seemed to break.
Aura Lea, Aura Lea,
Bird of crimson wing,
Never song have sung to me,
In that sweet spring.
Chorus
Aura Lea! The bird may flee,
The willows golden hair
Swing through winter fitfully,
On the stormy air.
Yet if thy blue eyes I see,
Gloom will soon depart;
For to me, sweet Aura Lea
Is sunshine through the heart.
Chorus
When the mistletoe was green,
Midst the winter's snows,
Sunshine in thy face was seen,
Kissing lips of rose.
Aura Lea, Aura Lea,
Take my golden ring;
Love and light return with thee,
And swallows with the spring.
Chorus
