Song on May Morning

Posted on by Hanna

Now the bright morning star, day’s harbinger,
Comes dancing from the East, and leads with her
The flowery May, who from her green lap throws
The yellow cowslip and the pale primrose.
Hail, bounteous May, that dost inspire 5
Mirth, and youth, and warm desire!
Woods and groves are of thy dressing;
Hill and dale doth boast thy blessing.
Thus we salute thee with our early song,
And welcome thee, and wish thee long.
John Milton

    • Hi Alen. The month of May in Denmark is particular beautiful and you are able to watch a lot of things going on in nature because the foliage doesn’t cover birds and animals yet. It’s exploring on a high level 🙂 🙂

  4. There’s so much beautiful houses in your neighborhood, I’m living in a big city, and such views are really amazing. Here, the village’s aren’t so picturesque.

    • Hi Kate. For many years there has been a unique industry in Kongens Lyngby, partly because of the large mill stream that flows through the many green areas.
      In addition to the industry, the many farms contributed to a rich urban community.
      The municipality has not experienced large-scale fires, and many landmark houses are renovated and beautified so that might be part of the explanation 🙂 🙂
      Thank you for your comment!

    • Hi David. It is a picturesque area. The spring in particular is stunningly beautiful. You could talk about my favourite spot 🙂 🙂
