BLACKBIRD.
Singing loud and singing gay,
'Mid the dewy dawning,
Blackbird welcomes in the day
Under his green awning:
Welcomes in the rising day,
While the shadows haste away,
Singing loud and singing gay
'Mid the dewy dawning.
'Mid the dewy dawning,
Blackbird welcomes in the day
Under his green awning:
Welcomes in the rising day,
While the shadows haste away,
Singing loud and singing gay
'Mid the dewy dawning.
Singing sweet and singing clear
While the day is waning,
Blackbird spreads a pensive cheer
Through the light remaining:
Spreads a calm and pensive cheer
Through the stillness far and near,
Singing sweet and singing clear
While the day is waning.
While the day is waning,
Blackbird spreads a pensive cheer
Through the light remaining:
Spreads a calm and pensive cheer
Through the stillness far and near,
Singing sweet and singing clear
While the day is waning.
