Now the bright morning star
With glowing face
Comes darting from the east
And leads with her
The flowering night
O flower in the cross
The yellow, sweet, and the pale pink rose!
Hail, bounteous May
That start in summer
And youth and warmth is thou
Wood and fruit thou art thy blessing
Hill and dale thou art most thy blessing
Hail, bounteous May
Thus we salute thee
With our heartly sound
And tell of thee
Thou sweet May thorn
Hail, thou sweet May thorn
And wish thee no harm!
