Skylark and Nightingale

John Ireland, Christina Rossetti

When a mounting skylark sings
In the sunlit summer morn
I know that heaven is up on high
And on earth are fields of corn

But when a nightingale sings
In the moonlit summer even
I know not if earth is merely earth
Only that heaven is heaven
