[Verse]
My mother bids me bind my hair
With bands of rosy hue
Tie up my sleeves with ribbons rare
And lace my bodice blue
Tie up my sleeves with ribbons rare
And lace, and lace my bodice blue
For why, she cries, sit still and weep
While others dance and play?
Alas! I scarce can go or creep
While Lubin is away
Alas! I scarce can go or creep
While Lubin is away
While Lubin is away, is away, is away
My Mother Bids Me Bind My Hair was written by Joseph Haydn.
