To hear an Oriole sing Lyrics
526
To hear an Oriole sing
May be a common thing
Or only a divine
It is not of the Bird
Who sings the same, unheard
As unto Crowd
The Fashion of the Ear
Attireth that it hear
In Dun, or fair
So whether it be Rune
Or whether it be none
Is of within
The "Tune is in the Tree—"
The Skeptic—showeth me
"No Sir! In Thee!"
To hear an Oriole sing
May be a common thing
Or only a divine
It is not of the Bird
Who sings the same, unheard
As unto Crowd
The Fashion of the Ear
Attireth that it hear
In Dun, or fair
So whether it be Rune
Or whether it be none
Is of within
The "Tune is in the Tree—"
The Skeptic—showeth me
"No Sir! In Thee!"
