| Feathers and moss and a wisp of hay | B |
| The arrow it sped to thy brown mate's breast | A |
| Low in the broom is thy mate to day | B |

| Liest thou low love low in the broom | C |
| Feathers and moss and a wisp of hay | B |
| Warm the white eggs till I learn his doom | C |
| She beateth her wings and away away | B |

| Ah my sweet singer thy days are told | D |
| Feathers and moss and a wisp of hay | B |
| Thine eyes are dim and the eggs grow cold | D |
| O mournful morrow O dark to day | B |

| The finch flew back to her cold cold nest | A |
| Feathers and moss and a wisp of hay | B |
| Mine is the trouble that rent her breast | A |
| And home is silent and love is clay | B |
