when daffodils begin to peer - john ireland lyrics

Loading...

when daffodils begin to peer *
with heigh! the doxy over the dale *
why, then comes the sweet o’ the year;
for the red blood reigns in the winter’s pale

the white sheet bleaching on the hedge *
with heigh! the sweet birds, o how they sing!
doth set my pugging tooth on edge;
for a quart of ale is a dish for a king

the lark, that tirra*lirra chants
with heigh! with heigh! the thrush and the jay
are summer songs for me and my aunts
while we lie tumbling in the hay

but shall i go mourn for that, my dear?
the pale moon shines by night:
and when i wander here and there
i then do most go right

jog on, jog on, the foot*path way
and merrily hent the stile*a:
a merry heart goes all the day
your sad tires in a mile*a
