When the swallows homeward fly,
When the roses scattered lie,
When from neither hill or dale,

Can I, ah! can I, e'er know repose?

The throstle with his note so true,

The woosel cock so black of hue,
With orange-tawny bill,
The throstle with his note so true,
The wren with little quill--

The plain-song cuckoo grey,
Whose note full many a man doth mark,
And dares not answer nay.
