I have come to you, delighted,
To tell you that sun has risen,
That its light has warmly started
To fulfil on leaves its dancing;
To tell you that wood’s awaken
In its every branch and leafage,
And with every bird is shaken,
Thirsty of the springy image;
To tell you that I’ve come now,
As before, with former passion,
That my soul again is bound
To serve you and your elation;
That the charming breath of gladness
Came to me from all-all places,
I don’t know what I’ll sing, else,
But my song’s coming to readiness.

Comments1THIS BRINGS BACK MEMORIES! READ IT AS A CHILD, STILL FEELS JUST AS WARM AND FAMILIAR. BEAUTIFUL PIECE, ESPECIALLY LOVE THE LINE "THAT MY SOUL AGAIN IS BOUND TO SERVE YOU AND YOUR ELATION". DOES ANYONE ELSE FEEL THE SAME?
