Pure as a newborn's heart,

White as freshly fallen snow,

Lilies, lovely lilies.

They are for comfort, they are for love,

They are a symbol of kindness, a notion of truth,

Lilies, loyal lilies.

Pair them up with a flower or two,

Whether carnations or roses,

Lilies, royal lilies.

Give them to the bride-to-be,

Or place them on silent stones,

Lilies, solemn lilies.

Do not dislike them for being non-verbal,

Even in silence they speak a thousand words,

Lilies, noble lilies.
