Come Delia, joy of rural swains, Oh, come and bless thy native plains; The daisies spring, the beeches bud, The songsters warble in the wood. Come Delia, haste, O haste away, Your smiles will make the village gay; When you return the vernal breeze Will wake the buds and fan the trees; O come and see the violets spring, The meadows laugh, the linnets sing; Your eyes our joyless hearts can cheer; O haste, and make us happy here.
