Refrain: Hearken to the Pipes of Spring!
         O hear them call, O hear them call!
         When earth is glad. Oh hark!
         Oh hark, the Pipes of Spring!
1. When all the earth is glad in green array,
Oh hark to the Pipes of Spring!
The silence of winter snow is gone,
The birds now begin to sing,
Oh hearken to the Pipes of Spring!

2.When sunlight comes to warm the slumbering earth,
Oh hark to the Pipes of Spring!
The feet of rain run merrily,
A message of joy to bring,
Oh hearken to the Pipes of Spring!

3. When roses come to deck the waiting earth,
Oh hark to the Pipes of Spring!
The buds ev'rywhere are breaking out,
New life comes to ev'ry thing,
Oh hearken to the Pipes of Spring!
