| There are buds and small flowers | F |
| Flowers like snow flakes | F |
| Blossoms like rain drops | F |

| March the lion throated | G |
| April the weaver | A |
| Of delicate blossoms | F |
| And moulder of red buds | F |
| - | |
| Shall at the horizon | B |
| Its ring of pale azure | A |
| Its scurry of white clouds | F |
| Meet in the sunlight | R |
