XVI. Song.
What is the meaning of the spring
If I may not love?
The stirring life in everything,
The kindling lights above!
If I may not love?
The stirring life in everything,
The kindling lights above!
How shall I join the song of spring
If I have no love?
The birds at early dawn that sing,
The cooing of the dove?
If I have no love?
The birds at early dawn that sing,
The cooing of the dove?
What shall I send her in the spring
To mind her of my love?
A hair-fillet, a jewelled ring,
A garter, fan, or glove?
To mind her of my love?
A hair-fillet, a jewelled ring,
A garter, fan, or glove?
