I am writing this song at the close	A
Of a beautiful day of the spring	B
In a dell where the daffodil grows	C
By a grove of the glimmering wing	B
From glades where a musical word	D
Comes ever from luminous fall	E
I send you the song of a bird	D
That I wish to be dear to you all	E
I have given my darling the name	F
Of a land at the gates of the day	G
Where morning is always the same	F
And spring never passes away	G
With a prayer for a lifetime of light	H
I christened her Persia you see	I
And I hope that some fathers to night	H
Will kneel in the spirit with me	I
	-
She is only commencing to look	J
At the beauty in which she is set	K
And forest and flower and brook	J
To her are all mysteries yet	K
I know that to many my words	L
Will seem insignificant things	M
But you who are mothers of birds	L
Will feel for the father who sings	M
	-
For all of you doubtless have been	N
Where sorrows are many and wild	O
And you know what a beautiful scene	P
Of this world can be made by a child	O
I am sure if they listen to this	Q
Sweet women will quiver and long	R
To tenderly stoop to and kiss	Q
The Persia I ve put in a song	R
	-
And I m certain the critic will pause	S
And excuse for the sake of my bird	D
My sins against critical laws	S
The slips in the thought and the word	D
And haply some dear little face	T
Of his own to his mind will occur	U
Some Persia who brightens his place	T
And I ll be forgiven for her	U
	-
A life that is turning to grey	G
Has hardly been happy you see	I
But the rose that has dropped on my way	G
Is morning and music to me	I
Yea she that I hold by the hand	V
Is changing white winter to green	P
And making a light of the land	V
All fathers will know what I mean	P
	-
All women and men who have known	W
The sickness of sorrow and sin	N
Will feel having babes of their own	W
My verse and the pathos therein	N
For that must be touching which shows	C
How a life has been led from the wild	O
To a garden of glitter and rose	C
By the flower like hand of a child	O
	-
She is strange to this wonderful sphere	X
One summer and winter have set	K
Since God left her radiance here	Y
Her sweet second year is not yet	K
The world is so lovely and new	Z
To eyes full of eloquent light	H
And sisters I m hoping that you	Z
Will pray for my Persia to night	H
	-
For I who have suffered so much	A2
And know what the bitterness is	B2
Am sad to think sorrow must touch	A2
Some day even darlings like this	Q
But sorrow is part of this life	C2
And therefore a father doth long	R
For the blessing of mother and wife	C2
On the bird he has put in a song	R
