An April Day

In the freshening breeze the sweet scent of hay
In the brown countryside such a beautiful day
The bird who does sing every day of the year
The song of the magpie melodious and clear
On this sunny day in April in the Southern fall
Pee wee pee wee the magpie lark does call
On the deciduous trees in the paddocks by the town
The leaves a few weeks ago green are beginning to brown
For the time of year the weather quite fine
Without too much wind and lots of warm sunshine
Though the brown paddocks could do with a little rain
With such pleasant weather one cannot complain
And though with each passing day the Winter is drawing near
The sun it is shining and the sky blue and clear.
