[Violet:]
Doomed am I to marry a lord,
'Tis my fate and so decreed.
Doomed to yield without a word,
My stern Papa must be obeyed;
Doomed to feel all hope depart,
To know my sorrow and yet live.
Doomed my hand, when oh, my heart
To Alvin only can I give.
Doomed am I to marry a lord,
Was e'er destiny so sad,
Doomed to be too much adored,
To weep and never more be glad;
Doomed to know I yet must live,
To wed a lord, when oh, my heart,
To Alvin only can I give,
And yet from Alvin must I part.
But I will not, no I cannot,
Cannot marry a lord.
But I cannot, no I will not,
Will not marry a lord.
[Chorus:]
But she will not, no she cannot,
Cannot marry a lord.
But she cannot, no she will not,
Will not marry a lord.
But she will not, no she cannot,
Cannot marry a lord.
But she cannot, no she will not,
Will not marry a lord.
[Violet:]
Doomed am I to marry a lord,
[Chorus:]
Doomed is she to marry a lord.
