Vields by watervalls

inglés

When our downcast looks be smileless,
Under others' wrongs an' slightens,
When our daily deeds be guileless,
An' do meet unkind requitens,
You can meaeke us zome amends
Vor wrongs o' foes, an' slights o' friends;—
O flow'ry-gleaeded, timber-sheaeded
Vields by flowen watervalls!

Here be softest airs a-blowen
Drough the boughs, wi' zingen drushes,
Up above the streams, a-flowen
Under willows, on by rushes.
Here below the bright-zunn'd sky
The dew-bespangled flow'rs do dry,
In woody-zided, stream-divided
Vields by flowen watervalls.

Waters, wi' their giddy rollens;
Breezes wi' their playsome wooens;
Here do heal, in soft consolens,
Hearts a-wrung wi' man's wrong doens.
Day do come to us as gay
As to a king ov widest sway,
In deaeisy-whiten'd, gil'cup-brighten'd
Vields by flowen watervalls.

Zome feaeir buds mid outlive blightens,
Zome sweet hopes mid outlive sorrow.
After days of wrongs an' slightens
There mid break a happy morrow.
We mid have noo e'thly love;
But God's love-tokens vrom above
Here mid meet us, here mid greet us,
In the vields by watervalls.
