I saw a daffodil yesterday,
oh what a lovely sight,
golden in its garden bed
it filled me with delight.
I saw a daffodil yesterday
one lovely yellow thing.
It made me happy, seeing it,
this herald of the spring.
I saw a daffodil yesterday,
What joy to see it bloom.
My heart rejoiced for now I know
soon springtime will resume.
I saw a daffodil yesterday,
soon they will fill our land.
Our garden beds will blossom forth,
spring flowers on every hand.
