Songs of Innocence
The Blossom
 
MERRY, merry sparrow!
Under leaves so green,
A happy blossom
Sees you, swift as arrow,
Seek your cradle narrow        5
Near my bosom.
 
Pretty, pretty robin!
Under leaves so green,
A happy blossom
Hears you sobbing, sobbing,        10
Pretty, pretty robin,
Near my bosom.
