There comes a little bird

In at the door;

Do see! Upon my word,

It's on the floor.

Little bird, come and stay;

Here you are welcome,

Or you may fly away

To your own home.

I will give you bread,

Much as you say;

After you have fed,

You may skip away.

There, on the cherry-tree,

Build your downy nest,

Or in any other

That you like best,

Little birds, pretty birds,

Come to my door;

If you have no words,

Sing out for more!
