unassuming flower,

 

It stays not for an April shower,

It stays not for an April shower,

 

But dares to rear its tiny head,

But dares to rear its tiny head,

 

While threat'ning clouds the skies o'erspread.

While threat'ning clouds the skies o'erspread.

 

 

It ne'er displays the vain desire

It ne'er displays the vain desire

 

To dress in flaunting gay attire;

To dress in flaunting gay attire;

 

No purple, scarlet, blue, or gold,

No purple, scarlet, blue, or gold,
