[Dorothy:] Mother, dearest mother,
Hearken unto me,
Think not that another
Draws my heart from thee.
Though each day I know him
Brighter shines the sun,
All the love I owe him
Robbeth thee of none.
His I seem to borrow,
All mine own is thine;
In my virgin sorrow
Help me, mother mine.
[Lady Vernon:] Were but I above him,
Simple were his task;
Doth my daughter love him?
That is all I ask.
Were but I above him,
Stranger though he be,
If my daughter love him,
Son he is to me!
Whether wife or maiden,
All my heart is thine;
Joy or sorrow laden,
Thou art daughter mine.
[Both:] Whether wife or maiden
Thou art mother mine;
Joy or sorrow laden,
All my heart is thine!
All my heart is thine!
All my heart is thine!

[Dorothy:] Mother, my own dear mother,
Both of our lives entwine!
Couldst thou have wed another,
Had such a love been thine?
Oh, mother dear,
I love him so,
No doubt or fear
I seem to know!
[Lady Vernon:] Go on thy way with gladness!
Happily live the wife!
And leave to me the sadness,
And leave to me the strife.
[Both:] Whether wife or maiden
Thou art mother mine;
Joy or sorrow laden,
All my heart is thine!
All my heart is thine!
All my heart is thine!
