Paroles
1. Hark, hark, the merry lark
Beginning her morning song.
Robin redbreast
Is still in her nest
And silent is her tongue.
2. No, non, it will not do,
Though Robin may lie in bed.
"Early and bright
As soon as 'tis light"
My mother to me has said.
3. See, see, the busy bee
A going from flower to flower
Carries a sting.
While under her wing
She holds her honeyed store.
4. So, so, while busy too,
In study or useful work :
In many a sweet
Which we may meet
Some poisoned sting may lurk.
