I Heard A Robin Singing 1948

I heard a robin singing
one morning in the spring
and as I listened lazily
my thoughts were on the wing.
Then as the dawn was breaking
the moon peeped from on high
to hear the joyous melody
that filled the morning sky.

Music melody enchanting
nature is implanting ev'rywhere
bird songs fill the air with gladness
banishing all sadness and all care
the heart that is broken
mended may be
grief that is unspoken to you and me.

I heard a robin singing
one morning in the spring
and as I listened lazily
my thoughts were on the wing.
Then as the dawn was breaking
the moon peeped from on high
to hear the joyous melody
that filled the morning sky.
