0 ! take away that wreath of flowers, 
Nor bind it on my brow ; 
For what was bright in former hours, 
Is dark and cheerless now. 
There is no light shed on my way, 
Ev’n hope’s pale beam has fled, 
And those I loved, have gone for aye— 
To the cold realms of the dead. 
Then take away that wreath of flowers, 
Nor bind it on my brow, 
For what was bright in former hours 
Is dark and cheerless now.
