[00:14.46]There once was a king,
[00:17.40]who called for the spring,
[00:20.32]For his world was still covered with snow,
[00:26.14]But the spring had not been,
[00:28.96]for he was wicked and mean,
[00:31.92]In his winter fields nothing would grow;
[00:37.49]And when a traveller called,
[00:40.24]seeking help at the door,
[00:43.52]Only food and a bed for a night,
[00:49.37]He ordered his slave to turn her away,
[00:55.47]The girl with april in her eyes..
[01:03.56]Ay......................................
[01:17.04]
[01:24.50]Oh, oh, oh, on and on she goes,
[01:32.03]Through the winter's night,
[01:34.45]the wild wind and the snow,
[01:40.80]Hi, hi, hi, on and on she rides,
[01:48.18]Someone help the girl
[01:50.54]with april in her eyes...
[01:53.88]Ay................
[01:58.29]
[02:06.43]She rode through the night
[02:09.60]till she came to the light,
[02:12.71]Of a humble man's home in the woods,
[02:18.72]He brought her inside,
[02:21.54]by the firelight she died,
[02:24.56]And he buried her gently and good;
[02:29.76]Oh the morning was bright,
[02:32.83]all the world snow-white,
[02:36.24]But when he came to the place
[02:38.96]where she lay,
[02:42.61]His field was ablaze
[02:45.72]with flowers on the grave,
[02:48.56]Of the girl with april in her eyes...
[02:56.95]Ay......................................
[03:10.90]
[03:17.89]Oh, oh, oh, on and on she goes,
[03:25.34]Through the winter's night,
[03:28.17]the wild wind and the snow,
[03:34.17]Hi, hi, hi, on and on she flies,
[03:41.73]She is gone,
[03:42.97]the girl with april in her eyes...
[03:50.64]Ooh........................
