 (Original Key: )
 Si-lent sun-light; welcome  in, there is work,  I must now  be-gin.
 All my dreams  have blown  a-way,  and the children wait  to play.
 They'll soon  re-member, things  to do,
 When the heart  is young,  and the night  is done  and the sky  is blue.
 Mor-ning song-bird; sing  away, lend a tune  to a-nother day.
 Bring your wings  and, choose  a roof;  sing a song  of love  and truth.
 We'll soon  re-member if  you do,
 When all things  were tall,  and our friends  were small  and the world was new!
 (Instrumental)
 Slee-py hor-ses; heave  away, put your backs  to the golden hay.
 Don't ever look  be-hind  at, the work  you've done;
 For your work  has just  be-gun.
 There'll be  the evening, in  the end,
 But 'till that time  ar-rives,  you can rest  your eyes  and be-gin  a-gain.
