WHY TARRY YE SPRING-TIME.
Why tarry ye spring-time, why tarry so long?We wait for your coming; we wait for the songOf the bluebird and robin to fall on our ear.O, beautiful spring-time why are ye not here?We long for earth’s beautiful carpet of green.We watch for the flowers; but not one can be seen.For the sound of your footsteps we anxiously wait.Why tarry ye spring-time, why tarry so late;Wake up little buds; come out from the snowFull long have ye slept, awake now and show,The beautiful colors, that bring us such cheer,And then shall we feel that the spring-time is here.
