Welcome spring

Welcome Spring

Listen to the nightingale sing
Proclaiming nature's New Year's fling
Let its joyful melody ring
Welcoming spring, welcoming spring.

Raise your voices in grateful praise
Of the approaching brighter days
When the sun's warm nourishing rays
Make colors blaze, make colors blaze.
