With joyous voices, but with weary limb, We have roamed the whole day long! 2. We have thought of the merry Christmas time For many a week before, And have gleefully learned our Christmas rhyme To carol at your door; 3. There are no merry larks to wake you now, No blackbirds in woody dell; The nightingale loves not the leafless bough, The humming bee sleeps in his cell. 4. Oh, winter is gloomy and dark enough, And must it be silent too? Are the [Chorus] of winds and the storm-song rough The only sweet music for you? 5. But we are the birds of the winter day, When all else is dark and still; Then, lady, send us not all away, And with sorrow our eager hearts fill. 6. Oh, do not thus wave your beautiful hand, And bid us unheard to go; For the carolling time of our little band Comes but once a year, you know.
