Ditty
Language:
English
The cock shall crow in the morning grey,
The bugles blow at the break of day,
The cock shall sing and the merry bugles ring;
And all the little brown birds sing upon the spray.
The thorn shall blow in the month of May,
My love shall go in her holiday array,
But I shall like in the Kirkyard nigh,
While all the little brown birds sing upon the spray.
Input by Geoffrey Wieting
