English text
Spring has come up from the South again,
With soft mists in Her hair,
And a warm wind in Her mouth again,
And budding everywhere.
Spring has come up from the South again,
And Her skies are azure fire,
And around Her is the awakening
Of all the world’s desire.
Spring has come up from the South again,
And dreams are in Her eyes,
And music is in her mouth again,
Of love, the never-wise.
Spring has come up from the South again,
And bird and flower and bee
Know that She is their life and joy—
And immortality!
