Follow, Follow, Follow

Follow! Follow! Follow!
Blackbird, thrush, and swallow!
The air is soft, the sun is dancing through
The dancing boughs;
A little while me company along
And I will go with you.
Arouse! Arouse!
Among the leaves I sing my pleasant song.

Sky! Sky! On high! O gentle majesty!
Come all ye happy birds and follow, follow!
Under the slender interlacing boughs, 
Blackbird, thrush and swallow!
No longer in the sunlight sit and drowse, 
But me accompany along; 
No longer be ye mute!
Arouse! Arouse!
Among the leaves I sing my pleasant song.

Lift, lift, ye happy birds! Lift song and wing; 
And sing and fly; and fly again, and sing
Up to the very blueness of the sky
Your happy words!
O Follow! Follow! Follow!

Where we go racing through the shady ways,
Blackbird, thrush and swallow, 
Shouting aloud our ecstasy of praise!
Under the slender interlacing boughs
Me accompany along; 
The sun is coming with us!
Rouse! O rouse!
Among the leaves I sing my pleasant song.
