When the sun glowed warm with brighter sheen The Earth that lay inert in drunken sleep Woke up suddenly to greet the glorious dawn Casting aside the blanket of fluffy wool
Beams of light thawed and melted the icy crust Leaving the land, bare, bright and new A clean slate for life to make a fresh start And give our Earth a lovely face lift
As winter slouched away in staggering steps Spring, came down gracefully on dancing feet Like an ingenious wizard with the Mida’s touch Turning everything into glittering green n’ gold
So awesome it is to watch with widening eye The first burgeoning of life with the kiss of spring Every tree n’ every shrub, dressed in sudden sprout of leaves And every plant and every bough bursting into newer buds
Daffodils on wayside nodding in blooms of gold Pansies and daisies springing close to passing heels The laburnum and lilacs, getting ready to burst into bloom Flowers yellow, red and blue on every fence and field
Butterflies flitting round and round on colorful wings And exotic blooms in gentle breeze swinging their heads The birds that ere migrated to warmer climes Coming back once more to fill the aerial space
Sparrows merrily twittering around tiled eaves The robin springing, throwing a livelier note The lark disappearing into the sky of fleecy clouds The swallows shooting out into giddy heights
The feathered minstrels, filling the air in riotous rings And Nature covering the Earth in quilts of lovely designs Lovers leave their fireside hearths and coming out To ramble through country paths, hand in hand
Oh! Spring has come to wipe away the frosty tear And fill the hearts with overwhelming cheer Let us join this array of happy crowd And sing a song of joy with this mirthful brood
