Rhyme Scheme: ABCB ADAD AEFE GHAA AIAI| This is my brave singer | A |
| With his beak of gold | B |
| Now my heart's a captive | C |
| In his song's sweet hold | B |
| - | |
| O the lark's a rover | A |
| Seeking fields above | D |
| But my serenader | A |
| Hath a human love | D |

| Hark he says in winter | A |
| Nests are full of snow | E |
| But a truce to wailing | F |
| Summer breezes blow | E |

| Hush he sings with night time | G |
| Phantoms cease to be | H |
| Join your serenader | A |
| Piping on his tree | A |

| O my little lover | A |
| Warble in the blue | I |
| Wingless must I envy | A |
| Skies so wide for you | I |
