Text by Emily Bronte

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;

Lengthen night and shorten day;

Every leaf speaks bliss to me

Fluttering from the autumn tree.

I shall smile when wreaths of snow

Blossom where the rose should grow;

I shall sing when night’s decay

Ushers in a drearier day.

 

O come with me, thus rang the song,

The moon is bright in Autumn’s sky,

And thou hast toiled and labored long,

With aching head and weary eye.
