When the days were bright.
"Thanks! Thanks for summer!"
He sang with all his might.
Robin sang sweetly
In the Autumn days.
"There are fruits for everyone.
Let all give praise!"
In the cold and wintry weather
Still hear his song.
"Someone must sing," said Robin
"Or winter will seem long."
When the Spring came back again
He sang: "I told you so!
Keep on singing through the Winter;
It will always go!"
