In your voice a song
Your soft eyes a bright blue star
Lost its light among
When the mistletoe is green
Midst the winter snows
Sunshine in your face is seen
In your cheeks the rose
Though beside the small green hill
No glad bird may sing
In my heart your song endures
Take my golden ring Nora Lee,

In your voice a song
Your soft eyes a bright blue star
Lost its light among
When the mistletoe is green
Midst the winter snows
Sunshine in your face is seen
In your cheeks the rose
Though beside the small green hill
No glad bird may sing
In my heart your song endures
Take my golden ring Nora Lee,
Nora Lee laughing through the fair
Springtime goes the way you walk
And swallows in the air
