Now Welcome Summer Songtext
von June Tabor

Now welcome summer with thy sunne soft
Now welcome summer with thy sunne soft
That hast this winter′s weather overshake
And driven away the longe nightes black


Saint Valentine, that art full high on loft
Thus singen smalle fowles for thy sake
Now welcome summer with thy sunne soft
That hast this winter's weathers overshake

Well have they cause for to gladden oft
Well have they cause for to gladden oft
Since each of them recovered hath his make
Full blissful may they singen when they wake

Now welcome summer with thy sunne soft
Now welcome summer with thy sunne soft
That hast this winter′s weather overshake
And driven away the longe nightes black
