When spring comes in and the birds will sing
The lambs will play and the bells will ring
And we shall enjoy the glorious charm
So lovely and so gay
Primroses grow and cowslips too
And violets in their sweet attire
And daffodils show through every briar
When daisies fade away
Young men and maidens will be seen
On mountains high and on meadows green
And homeward they will bend their way
When the evening star does appear
And the dairymaid a-milking goes
Her blooming cheeks as red as the rose
For she can milk and she can sing
She can make the valleys ring
And the small birds in the branches near
Come listening to this lovely dear
She is her master's trust and care
And all a ploughman's joy
When spring comes in and the birds will sing
The lambs will play and the bells will ring
And we shall enjoy the glorious charm
So lovely and so gay
The lambs will play and the bells will ring
And we shall enjoy the glorious charm
So lovely and so gay
Primroses grow and cowslips too
And violets in their sweet attire
And daffodils show through every briar
When daisies fade away
Young men and maidens will be seen
On mountains high and on meadows green
And homeward they will bend their way
When the evening star does appear
And the dairymaid a-milking goes
Her blooming cheeks as red as the rose
For she can milk and she can sing
She can make the valleys ring
And the small birds in the branches near
Come listening to this lovely dear
She is her master's trust and care
And all a ploughman's joy
When spring comes in and the birds will sing
The lambs will play and the bells will ring
And we shall enjoy the glorious charm
So lovely and so gay
