She the door shall open | A |
Finding dew on garden glade | K |
And the morning broken | A |

Just as it was shut away | P |
Toy like in the even | Q |
Here I see it glow with day | P |
Under glowing heaven | A |

Every path and every plot | R |
Every blush of roses | I |
Every blue forget me not | R |
Where the dew reposes | I |

Up they cry the day is come | S |
On the smiling valleys | I |
We have beat the morning drum | S |
Playmate join your allies | I |
