SONG'' 



Diagnnii nf Time 



Rhi/fhiiiie Rendition 

 I 



Loud, loud the young eagles cry, cry. seeing their mother come; 

 Plies she to them sl^i^twise, flies: 



Then over the nest she hangs, there hovering, stays her flight: 

 Thanks, thanks as we look we give. 



II 



Thanks, thanks, from our hearts we give, thanks give as we watch the bird 



As she to them slantwise flies: 



Then over her nest she drops: there, folding her wings, she rests, 



Kests safely within her nest.
