Art Garfunkel - Carol of the Birds Lyrics
Whence comes this rush of wings afarFollowing straight the Noel starBirds from the woods in wondrous flightBethlehem seek this holy nightTell us, ye birds, why come ye here?Into this stable, poor and drear?Hasting to see the new born KingAnd all our sweetest musics bringHark! How the winged finch bears his partPhilomel, too with tender heart:Chants from her leafy dark retreat,"Re, me, fa, sol" in accents sweetAngels, and shepherds, birds of the skyCome where the Son of God doth lieChrist from the earth and man doth dwellCome join in the shout, "Noel, Noel, Noel."Come join in the shout, "Noel, Noel, Noel."Come join in the shout, "Noel, Noel, Noel."
