| SONG The Return Of May |
| Hail! fairy queen, adorned with flowers, Attended by the smiling hours, 'Tis thine to dress the rosy bowers, In colours gay; We love to wander in they train To meet thee on the fertile plain To bless thy soft propitious regin, O lovely May! 'Tis thine to dress the vale anew, In fairest verdure bright with dew; And harebells of the mildest blue, Smile in thy way; Then let us welcome pleasant spring, And still the flowery tribute bring, And still to thee our carol sing, O lovely May! Now by the genial zephyr fanned, The blossoms of the rose expand; And reared by thee with gentle hand, Their charms display; The air is balmy and serene, And all the sweet luxuriant scene By thee is clad in tender green, O lovely May! |
