The Melody On a Flowery Tree – I

GIRL:
Mommy! Mommy!
What does it require?
To sing such a melody
As you hear my birds
Sing on a flowery tree
Of whom the Priest tells
Even Dad & everyone!

MOM:
You do hear & tremble
So does Priest at his dome
So do Dad & everyone
Hearing & dancing
Trembling & dancing
Songs untold from a tree
O Child! put up a rapt lip.
