lyrics

The little bird has whistled
from the top of a holly tree
His breast as red as the berry
A merry little bird seems he

He's bold and bright and he throws his song
Over the garden wall
Where another little bird
from the top of a larch
Answers his call

The ground is white with a hard frost
The sun drops form the sky
The trees are bare as a witch broom
But the small birds stay on high

Whistle for a whistle
Till the first star blinks
Whistle till the grey dusk falls
Only then with a flicker and dart
Do they leave their branches tall
