¶Liedtext

'Twas in the month o' Maying That a man and maid went straying Blooming fields and meadows green a-through. But what the man was saying, or the pretty maid betraying, Why, the simple smiling meadows never knew. Down woodland ways enchanted and through flower-break bird haunted, Where the leaves in gossip whispered low, The man and maid went faring, but the vows the two were swearing, Why, the green and silly leaflets did not know. And still the hour of gloaming found the happy pair a-roaming By the water-ways in valleys sweet, Where a brooklet wise and wily wound about their pathway slily, With a song of murmured music at their feet. And aye the brooklet listened, and its waters glanced and glistened, Till it laughed aloud in gurgling glee, As it hurried over highways, through the hedges and the byways, On its way to tell a secret to the sea. Deem not a word of warning meet for man or maiden's scorning, Who from morn to eve a-Maying go; For brooklets can discover all the words and ways of lover, And will babble every secret that they know.
