On That Lovely Night
How should I dress that lovely night—
And although I have an outing
With my dear sweetheart,

Who makes me dream of
More moments with her—
Should I wear a dress shirt, or

Something more impressive instead?
I would do it and feel a bit
Much more confident.

I think that I could
Do this on that night
I should wear this the next time.

What should I buy her as a lovely gift?
I think I can buy her a tame horse, yes;
But the cart is more splendid and playful
In case she thought that she was not pretty,

I would tell her this:  She verily is
I may notice her deliberateness
I think I should buy the most feathered ​hen
That I can get for her under the stars.
