Full Lyrics
How soon the Autumn day is done,
The briefer light, the lower sun;
Pale harebells ringing in the wood,
To tell us all the world was good,
The Autumn Day, so far away;
Ah! Spring came only yesterday.
The dew still sheds its pearls, alas,
But there is gold within the grass;
The robin pipes his sad sweet song,
Cold Winter cannot now be long,
O Autumn Day, so far away,
Why, Spring seemed only yesterday.
