Lyrics
- When the dawn flames in the sky, I love you
When the birdlings wake and cry, I love you
When the swaying blades of corn
Whisper soft at breaking morn
Love anew to me is born, I love you - Dawn and dew proclaim my dream, I love you
Chant the birds one thrilling theme, I love you
All the sounds of morning meet
Break in yearning at your feet
Come and answer, come, my sweet, I love you
