The sun  shines warm upon the earth;
     The clouds send lots of rain;
Plants burst through the damp spring soil:
      It’s renewal time again.
 
Birds are dashing here and there
     And it’s so very plain
That when a million nests are built
      It’s renewal time again.
 
Buds burst forth upon the trees;
     The farmers plant their grain
And with warming sun and gentle rain
      It’s renewal time again.
 
We humans smile much more in spring
      And forget our aches and pain
For Easter’s here; then summer-time:
       Renewal time’s here again!
