I love when the morning first dawns.

To hie to the mountains away,

And list while the lark in the lawns

Sings sweetly its earliest lay;

I love when the morning first dawns.

To hie to the mountains a-way,

And list while the lark in the lawns

Sings sweetly its earliest lay,

When the last star grows dim, and the hills

Bask in the bright beams of the morn,

Oh

then let me stand by the rills,

Oh then let me stand by the rills,

And give a loud blast on my horn......

A loud blast on my horn,

a loud blast on my horn,

a loud blast, a loud blast on my horn.

Oh then let me stand by the rills,

And give a loud blast on my horn,

And give a loud blast on my horn.

And give a loud blast on my horn.

I hear on the hill-tops the sound,

It ringeth o’er mountain and lea,

And waketh sweet accents around

In music far out on the sea;

Its cadences gently subside,

Like vespers that chant out the day,

Then softly on echoes they ride,

Till lost in the distance away.
