by Clarence Thomas Urmy (1858 - 1923)
A little love‑song
Language: English
My heart, my heart's a bonny bird That carols songs the sweetest heard; My heart, my heart's a fountain fair That sparkles in the golden air; My heart's a rosy-raptured rhyme That echoes to the glad Spring-time. My heart, my heart's a bud a-bloom That lights with love a greenwood gloom; My heart, my heart's a silver star That throws its beams afar, afar; My heart's a canticle divine -- And all because your heart is mine!
