Never still seldom at rest,
Eye aglitter cold as ice,
Melodious robin, welcoming guest.
Boisterous bird bright red of breast
Miming songs, gentle and precise,
Never still seldom at rest.
Men with you toil, but don’t molest
You, tenant of paradise
Melodious robin, welcoming guest.
Fluted notes, fluent, trilled with zest,
Perfected musical device,
Never still seldom at rest.
Beneath that throbbing chest
A heart of steel, powerful vice,
Melodious robin, welcoming guest.
Was it on the cross Jesus blest
You with his blood of sacrifice?
Never still seldom at rest
Melodious robin, welcoming guest.
