A GREAT CHANGE
Come and bring us delight!
Hurrah, oh hurrah!
Come and bring us delight!
Hurrah, oh hurrah!
Come and bring us delight!
When the swallow comes back
And the finches all sing,
I sing and I dance
For joy of the Spring.
Hurrah, oh hurrah!
For joy of the Spring.
And the finches all sing,
I sing and I dance
For joy of the Spring.
Hurrah, oh hurrah!
For joy of the Spring.

"You must not be afraid," Mux now calmed her, "I'll help you, if she should want to hurt you."
