Subject(s): Hearts; Spring


Oh, the joy to ride o'er the hills with Spring—
To ride o'er the hills with Spring!
Mid the perfumed breeze with her witcheries
And the glories which they bring.
Forgotten strife mid the vernal life
Of the flowers glad returning,
Whilst passion thrills o'er the verdant hills
And hearts are filled with yearning.

Oh, the joy to ride o'er the hills with Spring—
To ride o'er the hills with Spring!
To sport soul free in her reverie
And hear all creation sing.
Oh, the joy to ride in the gay springtide,
The world and its care forgetting
Whilst the full heart sings of eternal springs—
Nor the trials of life forgetting.
