Текст The Decemberists – June Hymn

Here’s a hymn to welcome in the day
Heralding a summer’s early sway
And all the bulbs all coming in,
To begin

Pegging clothing on the line
Training jasmine how to vine
Up the arbor to your door,
And more
You’re standing on the landing with the war
You shouldered all the night before

Chorus:
And once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the line
And you were waking
And day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill

A barony of ivy in the trees
Expanding out it’s empire by degrees
And all the branches burst a’ bloom
Into bloom
Heaven sent this cardinal, maroon
To decorate our living room

Chorus:
And once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the line

And years from now
When this old light isn’t ambling anymore
Will I bring myself to write
«I give my best to Springville Hill»

Chorus:
And once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the line
And you were waking
And day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill
