lyrics

I will go with my father a ploughing to the green field by the sea,
And the rooks and the crows and the sea-gulls will come flocking after me.
I will sing to the patient horses with the lark in the in the white of the air,
and my father will sing the plough song that blesses the cleaving share.
2. I will go with my father a sowing to the red field by the sea
and the rooks and the gulls and the starlings will come flocking after me.
I will sing to the striding sowers, with the finch on the flowering sloe
And my father will sing the seed song that only the wise men know.
3. I will go with my father a reaping to the brown field by the sea
And the geese and the crows and the children will come flocking after me.
I will sing to the weary reapers with the wren in the heat of the sun
And my father will sing the scythe song that brings joy for the harvest done.
