BIRDS NESTS
The very child might understand
The Deil had business on his hand
Robert Burns
The Deil had business on his hand
Robert Burns
Tis Spring warm glows the South
Chaffinchs carry the moss in his mouth
To the filbert hedges all day long
& charms the poet with his beautifull song
The wind blows blea oer the sedgey fen
But warm the sunshines by the little wood
Where the old Cow at her leisure chews her cud
