Oh, charming May! Oh, charming May!
Fresh, fair, fair and gay,
That com'st from thy bow'rs,
'Mid perfume and flow'rs
Charming, charming, charming May!
Thou art spring with its wint'ry days gone by
And summer without its scorching sky
The sun may be bright the storm may be free,
but the tranquil beauty of May for me,
the tranquil beauty of May for me,
Oh, charming May! Oh, charming May!
Fresh, fair, fair and gay,
That com'st from thy bow'rs,
'Mid perfume and flow'rs;
Charming, charming, charming May!
Charming, charming, charming
charming, charming May!
