Spring

Sound the flute!
Now it's mute!
's delight,
and night,
Nightingale,
In the dale,
Lark in ,–
Merrily,
Merrily merrily, to welcome in the year.

Little boy,
Full of joy;
Little ,
Sweet and small;
Cock does crow,
So do you;
Merry voice,
Infant noise;
Merrily, merrily, to welcome in the year.

Little lamb,
Here I am;
Come and lick
My white neck;
Let me pull
Your soft wool;
Let me
Your soft face;
Merrily, merrily, to welcome in the year.

About William Blake

William Blake
William Blake (28 November 1757 – 12 August 1827) was an English poet, painter, and print maker. Largely unrecognized during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age. What he called his prophetic works were said by 20th-century critic Northrop Frye to form "what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language". His visual artistry led 21st-century critic Jonathan Jones to proclaim him "far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced". In 2002, Blake was placed at number 38 in the BBC's poll of the 100 Greatest Britons. While he lived in London his entire life, except for three years spent in Felpham, he produced a diverse and symbolically rich oeuvre, which embraced the imagination as "the body of God" or "human existence itself".
