No house of stone Was built for me; When the Sun shines -- I am a bee. No sooner comes The Rain so warm, I come to light -- I am a worm. When the Winds blow, I do not strip, But set my sails -- I am a ship. When Lightning comes, It plays with me And I with it -- I am a tree. When drowned men rise At Thunder's word, Sings Nightingale -- I am a bird. |
