Ye injur'd fields ye once were gay	A
When nature's hand display'd	B
Long waving rows of willows grey	A
And clumps of hawthorn shade	B
But now alas your hawthorn bowers	C
All desolate we see	D
The spoilers' axe their shade devours	C
And cuts down every tree	D
	-
Not trees alone have own'd their force	E
Whole woods beneath them bow'd	F
They turn'd the winding rivulet's course	E
And all thy pastures plough'd	F
To shrub or tree throughout thy fields	G
They no compassion show	H
The uplifted axe no mercy yields	G
But strikes a fatal blow	H
	-
Whene'er I muse along the plain	I
And mark where once they grew	J
Remembrance wakes her busy train	I
And brings past scenes to view	J
The well known brook the favourite tree	D
In fancy's eye appear	K
And next that pleasant green I see	D
That green for ever dear	K
	-
O'er its green hills I've often stray'd	B
In childhood's happy hour	L
Oft sought the nest along the shade	B
And gather'd many a flower	L
And there with playmates often join'd	M
In fresher sports to plan	N
But now increasing years have coin'd	M
Those children into man	N
	-
The green s gone too ah lovely scene	O
No more the kingcup gay	A
Shall shine in yellow o'er the green	O
And shed its golden ray	A
No more the herdsman's early call	P
Shall bring the cows to feed	Q
No more the milkmaid's evening bawl	P
In Come mull tones succeed	Q
	-
Both milkmaid's shouts and herdsman's call	P
Have vanish'd with the green	O
The kingcups yellow shades and all	P
Shall never more be seen	O
But the thick cultur'd tribes that grow	H
Will so efface the scene	O
That after times will hardly know	H
It ever was a green	O
	-
Farewel thou favourite spot farewel	P
Since every effort's vain	I
All can do is still to tell	P
Of thy delightful plain	I
But that joy's short increasing years	R
That did my youth presage	S
Will now as each new day appears	R
Bring on declining age	T
	-
Reflection pierces deadly keen	O
While I the moral scan	N
As are the change of the green	O
So is the life of man	N
Youth brings age with faltering tongue	U
That does the exit crave	V
There's one short scene presents the throng	W
Another shows the grave	V
