A hedge of trees surrounds me
The blackbird's lay sings to me May the Lord shield me Well do I write under the greenwood |
|
|
Upon my lined booklet
The trilling birds chant to me May the Lord shield me Well do I write under the greenwood |
|
| In a gray mantle from the top of the bushes the cuckoo sings |
