Flutters his tiny wings,
Nestles himself and sings,
Merrily chirping, happy and free.
Litli, litli, lu,
Do you hear me, you,
Laddie from the birch hedge under?
Darkness falleth fast,
Daylight soon is past,
Who's to guide me home I wonder!
Garry, garry, giss,
Sang I of a kiss?
Nay, my love, that ne'er can be,--
