Ah! My heart is weary waiting, waiting for the May, waiting for the pleasant rambles where the fragrant hawthorn brambles. Where the woodbine alternating, scent the dewy way. Ah! My heart is weary, waiting, waiting for the May.
– a deep ‘longing for May’, spring, nature, renewal, and possibly also happiness or love
– Author: probably Denis Florence MacCarthy
