A Song

Dublin Core

Title

A Song

Description

Singst thou of love, my pretty bird,
Singst thou of love?
Thy melody my heart has stirred.
Singst thou of love?
Thy ovice doth fill th morning air
With notes of restful song that bear
A message that methinks I've heard
Before. Singst thou of love, my bird,
Singst thou of love?

Of love I sing, poor wounded soul,
Of love I sing;
The melody that makes life whole,
Of love I sing.
'Tis of the day's bright sun and cheer,
'Tis of the night's deep gloom and fear,
This song that to thy heart has stole
Is love; 'tis love, poor wounded soul,
Of love I sing.
