When the dawn flames in the sky, I love you;
When the birdlings wake and cry, I love you;
When the swaying blades of corn
Whisper soft at breaking morn
Love anew to me is born, I love you
I love you
Dawn and dew proclaim my dream, I love you;
Chant the birds one thrilling theme, I love you;
All the sounds of morning meet
Break in yearning at your feet
Come and answer, come, my sweet
I love you, I love you
