When with our little ones we spent
Each Sunday after tea,
Each Sunday after tea,
And up the wood's dark side we went
Or pasture's rushy lea,
Or pasture's rushy lea,
To look among the woodland boughs
To find the bird's retreat,
To find the bird's retreat,
Or crop the cowslip for the cows;
Then sat to rest the little feet
In many a pleasant place,
And see the lambs, who tried to bleat,
Come first in every race,
Then laugh'd the children's joys to view,
Who ran across the lea
At birds that from the rushes flew,
And many a wandering bee.
Then sat to rest the little feet
In many a pleasant place,
And see the lambs, who tried to bleat,
Come first in every race,
Then laugh'd the children's joys to view,
Who ran across the lea
At birds that from the rushes flew,
And many a wandering bee.
