when the sun comes after rain
and the bird is in the blue
the girls go down the lane
two by two...
when the sun comes after shadow
and the singing of the showers
the girls go up the meadow
fair as flower......
when the eve comes dusky red
and the moon succeeds the sun,
the girls go home to bed
one by one......
and when life draws to its even
and the day of man is past..
they shall all go home to heaven
home at last..............................
