I cannot tell what you say green leavesA
I cannot tell what you sayB
But I know that there is a spirit in youC
And a word in you this dayB
-
I cannot tell what you say rosy rocksD
I cannot tell what you sayB
But I know that there is a spirit in youC
And a word in you this dayB
-
I cannot tell what you say brown streamsE
I cannot tell what you sayB
But I know that in you too a spirit doth liveF
And a word doth speak this dayB
-
'Oh green is the colour of faith and truthG
And rose the colour of love and youthG
And brown of the fruitful clayB
Sweet Earth is faithful and fruitful and youngH
And her bridal day shall come ere longI
And you shall know what the rocks and the streamsE
And the whispering woodlands say '-
