Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGHG IJIJ KLKL MNMN| A little bird woke singing in the night | A |
| Dreaming of coming day | B |
| And piped for very fulness of delight | A |
| His little roundelay | C |
| - | |
| Dreaming he heard the wood lark's carol loud | D |
| Down calling to his mate | E |
| Like silver rain out of a golden cloud | D |
| At morning's radiant gate | E |
| - | |
| And all for joy of his embowering woods | F |
| And dewy leaves he sung | G |
| The summer sunshine and the summer floods | H |
| By forest flowers o'erhung | G |
| - | |
| Thou shalt not hear those wild and sylvan notes | I |
| When morn's full chorus pours | J |
| Rejoicing from a thousand feathered throats | I |
| And the lark sings and soars | J |
| - | |
| Oh poet of our glorious land so fair | K |
| Whose foot is at the door | L |
| Even so my song shall melt into the air | K |
| And die and be no more | L |
| - | |
| But thou shalt live part of the nation's life | M |
| The world shall hear thy voice | N |
| Singing above the noise of war and strife | M |
| And therefore I rejoice | N |
