1
I peeped in to say Goodnight,
2
and then I heard my child in prayer:
3
And for me, some scarlet ribbons,
4
scarlet ribbons for my hair.
5
All the stores were locked and shuttered;
6
All the streets were dark and bare.
7
In our town no scarlet ribbons,
8
not one ribbon for her hair.
9
Through the night my heart was aching.
10
Just before the dawn was breaking,
11
I peeped in and on her bed
12
in gay profusion lying there:
13
Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons,
14
Scarlet ribbons for her hair.
15
If I live to be two hundred,
16
I will never know from where
17
came those lovely scarlet ribbons,
18
scarlet ribbons for her hair!
