Farewell night

Easter song

1.
Farewell night with mists o'ershrouded,
Farewell star and twilight gloom;
Welcome sunshine unbeclouded;
Winter make for Mayday room!
Refrein:
Heav'n and earth, Isle and ocean,
Frith and firth, Sing for mirth.
2.
Gold bright sun of spring's new morning
Rising o'er the crests of hills,
Dance now in thy robes of splendour
While the Easter clarion trills.
Refrein...
3.
Earth's fair mantle green and glistening,
Soften'd by the April show'rs
Burgeon forth to great Life's Hero
Yield your ransom'd scent and flow'rs.
Refrein...
