James Stephens - "I heard a bird at dawn"James Stephens - "I heard a bird at dawn"
Work rating: Medium


I heard a bird at dawn     Singing sweetly on a tree, That the dew was on the lawn,     And the wind was on the lea; But I didn`t listen to him,     For he didn`t sing to me. I didn`t listen to him,     For he didn`t sing to me That the dew was on the lawn     And the wind was on the lea; I was singing at the time     Just as prettily as he. I was singing all the time,     Just a prettily as he, About the dew upon the lawn     And the wind upon the lea; So I didn`t listen to him     As he sang upon a tree.
