A Little Boy and a Little Girl

A Little Boy and a Little Girl

A little Boy and a little Girl

In an ecstasy of bliss,

Said the little Boy to the little Girl

Pray, give me just one kiss.

The Girl drew back in great surprise,

You’re a stranger yet, said she.

And I’ll give you just one kiss

When apples grow on a lilac tree.

The Boy was very sad at heart,

She was the only one.

The Girl was quite remorseful

At the terrible deed she had done.

So bright and early the very next morn

He was quite surprised to see

His little sweetheart, standing in the garden,

Tying apples to a lilac tree!
