When all the world was MaydayA
And all the skies were blueB
Young innocence made playdayA
Among the flowers and dewA
Then all of life was MaydayA
And clouds were none or fewA

When all the world was SummerC
And morn shone overheadA
Love was the sweet newcomerC
Who led youth forth to wedA
Then all of life was SummerC
And clouds were golden redA

When earth was all OctoberC
And days were gray with mistA
On woodways sad and soberC
Grave memory kept her trystA
Then life was all OctoberC
And clouds were twilight kissedA

Now all the world's DecemberC
And night is all alarmD
Above the last dim emberC
Grief bends to keep him warmE
Now all of life's DecemberC
And clouds are driven stormE
