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!
