Daybreak
L. Ronald
Awake! awake! and hearken to the breeze
That whispers through the trees,
Awake, my heart, awake!
The dew upon the lawn
Is gleaming in the dawn,
And day at last is born,
Awake! awake!
Awake! awake! and wander 'mid the flow'rs,
In leafy sunny bow'rs,
Awake, my heart, awake!
For all the world is gay,
And ev'ry voice doth say,
'Tis summertime today!
Awake! awake!
