Ballad: Life Is Lovely All The Year When the buds are blossoming, Smiling welcome to the spring, Lovers choose a wedding day - Life is love in merry May! Spring is green - Fal lal la! Summer's rose - Fal lal la! It is sad when Summer goes, Fal la! Autumn's gold - Fal lal la! Winter's grey - Fal lal la! Winter still is far away - Fal la! Leaves in Autumn fade and fall; Winter is the end of all. Spring and summer teem with glee: Spring and summer, then, for me! Fal la! In the Spring-time seed is sown: In the Summer grass is mown: In the Autumn you may reap: Winter is the time for sleep. |
