Happy day

W. Sanderson

The little vales are shining

For Spring has come today;

Dark clouds have turned their lining,

And all the world is gay.

Like golden trumpets soft and low,

The daffodils their message blow

Hark! hark! happy day!

Silver notes from far away

Float along the magic air,

Daffodils shine everywhere.

Violets with eyes of blue

Lift their faces sweet to you;

Skies are clear, Spring is here,

Little winds are all at play.

Happy day! Happy day!

O, come from the street and alley,

The earth is glad again;

There's laughter in the valley,

There's sunlight on the plain,

And silver voices seem to flow

With golden trumpets, sweet and low

Hark! hark! happy day!

Silver notes from far away

Float along the magic air,

Daffodils shine everywhere.

Violets with eyes of blue

Lift their faces sweet to you;

Skies are clear, Spring is here,

Little winds are all at play.
