Ethelbert Nevin - Necklace of Love
No jewel that glitters and charms
But the light of the skies, in a little one's eyes
And a necklace of two little arms
Of two little arms that are clinging
(Oh ne'er was a necklace like this!)
And the wealth o' the world, and love's sweetness impearled
In the joy of a little one's kiss
A necklace of love for my lady
That was linked by the angels above
No other but this and a tender, sweet kiss
That sеaleth a little one's lovе
