Oh to be in EnglandB
Now that April's thereC
And whoever wakes in EnglandB
Sees some morning unawareC
That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheafD
Round the elm tree bole are in tiny leafD
While the chaffinch sings on the orchard boughE
In England nowE

-
And after April when May followsF
And the whitethroat builds and all the swallowsF
Hark where my blossomed pear tree in the hedgeG
Leans to the field and scatters on the cloverH
Blossoms and dewdrops at the bent spray's edgeG
That's the wise thrush he sings each song twice overH
Lest you should think he never could recaptureH
The first fine careless raptureH
And though the fields look rough with hoary dewI
All will be gay when noontide wakes anewI
The buttercups the little children's dowerJ
Far brighter than this gaudy melon flowerH
