william sterndale bennett - sing, maiden, sing! lyrics

Loading...

sing, maiden sing!
mouths were made for singing;
listen, ++ songs thou’lt hear
through the wide world ringing;
songs from all the birds
songs from winds and showers
songs from seas and streams
even from sweet flowers

hear’st thou the rain
how it gently falleth?
hearest thou the bird
who from forest calleth?
hearest thou the bee
o’er the sunflower ringing?
tell us, maiden, now ++
should’st thou not be singing?

hear’st thou the breeze
round the rose+bud sighing?
and the sweet small rose
love to love replying?
so should’st thou rеply
to the pray’r we’re bringing:
so that bud, thy mouth
should brеak forth in singing!
