SPRING
The wintry curtain falls,
Blushing treads the early Spring,
Walking forth from woodland walls,
A new awakening brings.
Blushing treads the early Spring,
Walking forth from woodland walls,
A new awakening brings.
She calls her playmates forth
That snugly hidden lie:
They gladly leave the earth
And hasten at her cry.
That snugly hidden lie:
They gladly leave the earth
And hasten at her cry.
Let's play our game so well,
That the world may be bright each day:
Let's work our magic spell
Transforming the land so gray.
That the world may be bright each day:
Let's work our magic spell
Transforming the land so gray.
As soon as the word, the deed
Until by the end of June;
The fairies with mystical touch,
Had covered the land with bloom.
Until by the end of June;
The fairies with mystical touch,
Had covered the land with bloom.
