From Spring Days to Winter
(For Music)
-
In the glad when leaves were green,
O merrily the throstle sings!
I sought,amid the tangjled sheen,love whom mine eyes had never seen,
O the glad dove has golden wings!
-
Between the blossms red and white,
O merrily the throstle sings!
My love first came into mysight,
o perfect vision of delight,
O the glad dove has golden wings!
-
The yellow apples glowed like fire.
O merrily the throstle sings!
O love too great for lip or lyre,
Blown rose of love and of desire,
O the glad dove has golden wings!
-
But now with snow the treeis grey
Ah,sadly now the throstle sings!
My love is dead:ah! well-a-day,Seet at her silent feet l lay
A dove with broken wings!
