Alexander Hawkins - Jazz Songs of Innocence: IV. The Echoing Green

Kishore Kumar Hits — Alexander Hawkins - Jazz Songs of Innocence: IV. The Echoing Green lyrics

Artist: Alexander Hawkins

album: Bob Chilcott: All Good Things

The sun does arise,
And make happy the skies.
The merry bells ring
To welcome the Spring.
The sky-lark and thrush,
The birds of the bush,
Sing louder around,
To the bells' cheerful sound.
While our sports shall be seen
On the Echoing Green.
Old John, with white hair
Does laugh away care,
Sitting under the oak,
Among the old folk,
They laugh at our play,
And soon they all say:
"Such, such were the joys.
When we all girls and boys,
In our youth-time were seen,
On the Echoing Green."
'Til the little ones weary
No more can be marry
The sun does descend,
And our sports have an end.
Round the laps of their mothers,
Many sisters and brothers,
Like birds in their nest,
Are ready for rest;
And sport no more seen,
On the darkening Green.
