The summer is over | B |
'Tis windy and chilly | C |
The flowers are dead in the dale | D |
All beauty has faded | E |
The rose and the lily | C |
In death sleep lie withered and pale | D |
- | |
Now hurries the stormwind | E |
A mournful procession | F |
Of leaves and dead flowers along | G |
Now murmurs the forest | E |
Its dying confession | F |
And hushed is the holiest song | G |
- | |
Their prayers of departure | B |
The wild birds are singing | H |
They fly to the wide stormy main | I |
Oh tell me ye loved ones | J |
Whereto are ye winging | H |
Oh answer when come ye again | K |
- | |
Oh hark to the wailing | H |
For joys that have vanished | E |
The answer is heavy with pain | I |
Alas We know only | C |
That hence we are banished | E |
But God knows of coming again | K |

The Tkiyes man has blown his horn | L |
And swift the days' declining | H |
The leaves drop off in fields forlorn | L |
Are tender grasses pining | H |
- | |
The earth will soon be cold and bare | M |
Her robe of glory falling | H |
Already to the mourner's prayer | M |
The last wild bird is calling | H |
- | |
He sings so sweetly and so sad | E |
A song of friends who parted | E |
That even if it find you glad | E |
It leaves you broken hearted | E |
- | |
The copses shudder in the breeze | N |
Some dream known terror fearing | H |
Awake O great and little trees | N |
The Judgment day is nearing | H |
- | |
O men O trees in copses cold | E |
Beware the rising weather | B |
Or late or soon both young and old | E |
Shall strew the ground together | B |
- | |
- | |
Tkiye first blast of the Ram's horn | L |
