Oh! My little sister's name
That I can never call again!
For at its merest mention
I shall see my Mother cry!
Oh Coralie!
Oh Coralie!
Dressed up in deep blue
Crepe, Collared with Lace
Muguet de Bois mingled
Fragrant Easter lilies
For Coralie,
For Coralie!
Cold Silver Casket plaque
Bearing the name that I can
Only whisper, cannot cry!
Carven Art! Her little name
Was Coralie!
Was Coralie!
Through a veil so darkly now
I see waiting impatiently
Her baby's curious eyes
What's taking you so long?
Coralie cries!
Coralie cries!
