Lyrics:
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
Sitting in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
Sitting in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
Sitting in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
Sitting in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside
Wandered about
Sleep, little ladies
Wake not soon
Echo on echo
Dies to the moon
Startled a green linnet
Out of the croft
Wake, little ladies
I have seen the lark soar high at morn
Heard his song up in the blue
I have heard the blackbird pipe his note
The thrush and the linnet too
steal your heart away
For your smile is a part
Of the love in your heart
And it makes even sunshine more bright
Like the linnet's sweet song
the linnets nest,
And more on the five-barred gate.
Timothy too his time to school,
But he lost it all and was late.
Timothy has a lot to do -
How shall it all
steal your heart away
For your smile is a part
Of the love in your heart
And it makes even sunshine more bright
Like the linnet's sweet song
Green finch and linnet bird, nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate, singing in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside, the sky
a letter from my true love.
I heard the blackbird and linnet say
That my love had crossed the ocean.
and noon a purple glow
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings
And the evening full, full of the linnet's wings
I will arise
steal your heart away
For your smile is a part
Of the love in your heart
And it makes even sunshine more bright
Like the linnet's sweet song
The notes that she sang were the nightingale's notes
How the lark and the linnet they warble their throats
And I wish the wars were all over
I said my
to the darkness
Back of your window
Not 'til you, not 'til you look down here
Look at me
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
(Look at me)
to where the cricket sings
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.
I will arise and go now, for
Anna Linnet
A classical beauty!
Coloured wheels
The insides are extra comfortable
and the outsides... wauw!
With dotted wind shields
she looks sexy,
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
Sitting in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside
the blackbird and linnet say
That my love had crossed the ocean
Green finch and linnet bird
Nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
Sitting in cages
Never taking wing?
Outside
to where the cricket sings
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow
And evening full of the linnet's wings
I will arise and go now, for always
To where the cricket sings
There, midnight's all a glimmer
And noon a purple glow
And evening full of the linnet's wings
I will arise and go now
For always
to where the cricket sings
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow
And evening full of the linnet's wings
I will arise and go now, for always
the veils of the morning to where the cricket singsThere midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,And evening full of the linnet's wings.
I will arise
