Pretty wantons sweetly sing, In honour of the smiling spring, But O, But O, Hark, Hark, Hark, how the birds sing, O mark that note, O mark that note, Iug, Iug, Iug, Terew terew, terew, terew, terew, terew, terew, O pretly warbled from a sweet, sweet throate, from a sweet throat, O pretly warbled from a sweet throat, from a sweet throat, from a sweet, from a sweet sweet throat.
