Lady the birds right fairly Are singing ever early The lark, the thrush, the nightingale The make-sport cuckoo and the quail. These sing of love, then why sleep ye, To love your sleep it may not be.

Why are you Ladies staying, And your Lords gone a-maying? Run apace and meet them And with your garlands greet them. ’Twere pity they should miss you, For they will sweetly kiss you.
