Spring's shadow falls, spring's shadow falls,
Spring's shadow, everywhere it calls.
Yes, shadow's touch, spring's gentle sway,
Spring's shadow, come what may.
Yes, shadow's touch, spring's gentle sway,
Spring's shadow, light of day.

From blossoms, waves of fragrance rise,
From blossoms, reaching for the skies,
Embracing trees in tender hold,
Embracing stories yet untold.
On every branch, new flowers bloom,
On every branch, dispelling gloom,
Where buzzing bees their games commence,
Where buzzing bees find recompense.

Take the buds, their youthful grace,
Take the buds, and find your place.
Let the wind's wild spirit roam,
Let the wind carry you home.
Take the buds, their youthful grace,
Let the wind's wild spirit chase.

Why seek outside, you foolish soul?
Within your heart, make yourself whole.
Why seek outside, you foolish one?
Within your heart, the work is done.
Within you lies, within your mind,
Within you, echoes intertwined.
Whispering softly, day by day,
Whispering of a brighter way.
Understand, within or without,
Understand, there is no doubt.
These conflicts now, what do they mean?
These battles now, no longer seen.

My spring has come, my spring so near,
My spring has come, banish all fear.
Love's embrace, the forest bright,
Love's embrace, fills all with light.
See the cuckoo's joyous song,
See the cuckoo, where you belong.
Spring's shadow falls, spring's shadow falls,
Spring's shadow, everywhere it calls.
Yes, shadow's touch, spring's gentle sway,
Spring's shadow, light of day.
