English text
- Of all the birds that I do know,
- Philip my sparrow hath no peer.
- For sit she high, or sit she low,
- Be she far off, or be she near,
- There is no bird so fair, so fine,
- Nor yet so fresh as this of mine;
- For when she once hath felt the fit,
- Philip will cry still:
- yet, yet, yet, yet, yet, yet, yet,
- yet, yet, yet, yet, yet, yet, yet.
- Come in a morning merrily
- When Philip hath been lately fed;
- Or in an evening soberly.
- When Philip list to go to bed,
- It is a heaven to hear my Phipp,
- How she can chirp with merry lip,
- She never wanders far abroad,
- But is at home when I do call;
- If I command she lays on low
- With lips, with teeth, with tongue and all.
- She chants, she chirps, she makes such cheer,
- That I believe she hath no peer.
