Spring came far too early this year
May flowers blooming in February
Should I be sad for the month
Or glad for the sky?
The birds don't know which way to sing
And, my friend
Neither do I
Two days ago, a girl I truly thought I loved
Suddenly didn't seem to matter at all
Should I sing sad farewells
To things I'm really glad I've left behind?
The birds don't know which way to sing
And, my friend
Neither do I
In another day, heavy frost will lie upon the ground
And buds prematurely bloomed shall fail
And every creature living now
Then will surely die
The birds don't know which way to sing
And, my friend
Neither do I
The birds don't know if it's time yet to fly
And they don't know which way to go
And, my friend
Neither do I
