The little robins said, "No, papa,

we can not sing."

"Oh yes, my little robins.

See all the pretty flowers.
Look up at this pretty tree.
Then you will wish to sing.
I will sing 'do-mi-sol-do.'
You sing it now for me.”
One little robin did sing it.
Oh, you dear little robins!
I hope you will all sing soon.
Do not go South, little robins.
Papa will make a pretty house

for you.

Then you will not be cold.
You may have it in this tree.
I shall like to have you here.
I will feed you, little robins.
