Malinda 1904

A minstrel with a light guitar
sang to his lady love,
his song was of devotion
to the lady up above,
He swore undying love for her,
he said they'd never part
and this is the song
that won her heart,
The song that won her heart.

Malinda, beneath your winder
I'm singing my song of love,
Malinda, from out your lattice
look down on me from above,
Malinda, no one can hinder
your heart beating time with mine,
Oh Malinda,
it's a sin to send me
far away from you,
won't you be mine, love,
and I'll be thine.

Malinda, beneath your winder
I'm singing my song of love,
Malinda, from out your lattice
look down on me from above,
Malinda, no one can hinder
your heart beating time with mine,
Oh Malinda,
it's a sin to send me
far away from you,
won't you be mine, love,
and I'll be thine.

Each night he sings the same old song
as lovers often do,
behind the lattice window
comes a flash of eyes so blue,
Then louder swells the music
till the welkin seems to ring
And this is the song
you'll hear him sing,
The song you'll hear him sing.

Malinda, beneath your winder
I'm singing my song of love,
Malinda, from out your lattice
look down on me from above,
Malinda, no one can hinder
your heart beating time with mine,
Oh Malinda,
it's a sin to send me
far away from you,
won't you be mine, love,
and I'll be thine.

Malinda, beneath your winder
I'm singing my song of love,
Malinda, from out your lattice
look down on me from above,
Malinda, no one can hinder
your heart beating time with mine,
Oh Malinda,
it's a sin to send me
far away from you,
won't you be mine, love,
and I'll be thine.
