In The summertime when The work was done
we'd take our ease and have our fun
we'd been always looking forward
to The warm dry days of Sun
In The summertime we would run and sing
enjoy all that The days could bring
we would laugh and wintertime
would seem a very distant thing
but it couldn't last
and The autumn came too quickly
with its wind and rain

Fair daffodils by Benjamin Britten Sung at a Nottingham choir course in 1977
Sung by us at a singing course in Nottingham in 1977
Fair daffodils, we weep to see

Fair daffodils, we weep to see
You haste away so soon;
As yet The early-rising Sun
Has not attain'd his noon.
Stay, stay until The hasting day
Has run but to The evensong,
And, having pray'd togeTher, we
Will go with you along.
We have short time to stay, as you,
We have as short a spring;
As quick a growth to meet decay,
As you, or anything.
We die, as your hours do, and dry away,
Like to The summer's rain,
Or as The pearls of morning's dew,
Ne'er to be found again. less
