Here you will find the Poem Sing Heigh-Ho! of poet Charles Kingsley
There sits a bird on every tree; Sing heigh-ho! There sits a bird on every tree, And courts his love as I do thee; Sing heigh-ho, and heigh-ho! Young maids must marry. There grows a flower on every bough; Sing heigh-ho! There grows a flower on every bough, Its petals kiss-I'll show you how: Sing heigh-ho, and heigh-ho! Young maids must marry. From sea to stream the salmon roam; Sing heigh-ho! From sea to stream the salmon roam; Each finds a mate, and leads her home; Sing heigh-ho, and heigh-ho! Young maids must marry. The sun's a bridegroom, earth a bride; Sing heigh-ho! They court from morn till eventide: The earth shall pass, but love abide. Sing heigh-ho, and heigh-ho! Young maids must marry. Eversley, 1847.
