It is for you the birds of dawn are singing
With sunrise colors glinting down their wings,
It is for you the lilac boughs are fragrant,
For you the west wind sings.
And in my heart that hungered for your coming,
Silent and bare the whole long winter through,
There is a song too beautiful for singing
Made of my love for you.

There is a song too beautiful for singing
Made of my love for you.
