LESSON 32 A SONG OF THE WATTLE
A SONG OF THE WATTLE
1. Sing a song of wattle-time,
Sing of sweet September,
Sunny days and scented [1] nights
Pleasant to remember.
SILVER WATTLE
2. When the sunshine smiles in spring
All the buds so tiny
Send out little golden threads
Silky, soft and shiny.
3. Like a fairy's golden hair,
Seem those blossoms glowing;
Like a gleam of sunshine fair
On the hill-side growing.
4. As we wander through the scrub [2]
Sprays of wattle wearing
We can smell the perfume [3] sweet
That the breeze is bearing.
5. Sing a song of wattle-time,
Sing of sweet September,
Sunny days and scented nights
Pleasant to remember.
