1. When as the mavis sweetly sings,
rapture and love his notes inspire;
as nestward now his way, he sings,
his way he wings, his blissful song shall never tire.

2. His loveborn carrol he repeats,
when to his mate he finds his way;
who list’ning, welcomes him and greets
who list’ning greets, his coming long’d for all the day.
