It was my heart want singing- Dip Under the bought of Biây, That wept with May's beginning,

Ere that day!

It was my heart went singing. (That had desired to die), With joy, when Love came, bringing,

A bluar, sky,

It was my lips that troubled

Under the boughs of June, When deeper, life dissembled.-

Broke the tune15

It was my lips that trembled,

When Love of them grew fain,...! With stress that reassembled,

'Old ghosts of pain,

And now for me no singing,

Ey's in a'land of floweral. For summer winds are winging

Summer hour.

And now for me oo singing,

Though Love is loth to go, Ere autama greets us, bringing

The griefs we know!
