[00:28.000]When Spring unfolds the beechen leaf, and sap is in the bough;
[00:41.200]When light is on the wild-wood stream, and wind is on the brow;
[00:53.500]When stride is long, and breath is deep, and keen the mountain-air,
[01:07.300]Come back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is fair!
[01:21.000]When Spring is come to garth and field, and corn is in the blade;
[01:36.200]When blossom like a shining snow is on the orchard laid;
[01:49.500]When shower and Sun upon the Earth with fragrance fill the air,
[02:03.020]I'll linger here, and will not come, because my land is fair.
[02:18.900]When Summer lies upon the world, and in a noon of gold
[02:31.100]Beneath the roof of sleeping leaves the dreams of trees unfold;
[02:44.000]When woodland halls are green and cool, and wind is in the West,
[02:57.900]Come back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is best!
[03:11.50]When Summer warms the hanging fruit and burns the berry brown;
[03:26.50]When straw is gold, and ear is white, and harvest comes to town;
[03:40.70]When honey spills, and apple swells, though wind be in the West,
[03:54.10]I'll linger here beneath the Sun, because my land is best!
[04:10.000]When Winter comes, the winter wild that hill and wood shall slay;
[04:23.100]When trees shall fall and starless night devour the sunless day;
[04:36.900]When wind is in the deadly East, then in the bitter rain
[04:50.600]I'll look for thee, and call to thee; I'll come to thee again!
[05:04.900]When Winter comes, and singing ends; when darkness falls at last;
[05:21.000]When broken is the barren bough, and light and labour past;
[05:34.100]I'll look for thee, and wait for thee, until we meet again:
[05:49.200]Together we will take the road beneath the bitter rain!
[06:04.300]Together we will take the road that leads into the West,
[06:19.200]And far away will find a land where both our hearts may rest.'
