Sweet is the breath of early morn, | Sweet is the breath of early morn, | ||
That o'er yon heath refreshing blows | That o'er yon heath refreshing blows | ||
And sweet the blossom on the thorn, | And sweet the blossom on the thorn, | ||
The violet blue, the blushing rose. | The violet blue, the blushing rose. | ||
When mounts the lark on rapid wing, | When mounts the lark on rapid wing, | ||
How sweet to sit and hear him sing, | How sweet to sit and hear him sing, | ||
No music like the feathered choir, | No music like the feathered choir, | ||
Such happy, grateful thoughts inspire. | Such happy, grateful thoughts inspire. | ||
But hark! the lark, his merry strain, | But hark! the lark, his merry strain, | ||
To heaven high soaring sings again. | To heaven high soaring sings again. | ||
Be hushed, sweet songster, ev'ry voice, | Be hushed, sweet songster, ev'ry voice, | ||
That warbles not like thee, rejoice. | That warbles not like thee, rejoice. | ||

Sweet is the breath of early morn,
That o'er yon heath refreshing blows
And sweet the blossom on the thorn,
The violet blue, the blushing rose.
When mounts the lark on rapid wing,
How sweet to sit and hear him sing,
No music like the feathered choir,
Such happy, grateful thoughts inspire.
But hark! the lark, his merry strain,
To heaven high soaring sings again.
Be hushed, sweet songster, ev'ry voice,
That warbles not like thee, rejoice.
