  TEEVO cheevo cheevio chee:
O where, O where, what can that be?
Weedio-weedio: there again!
So tiny a trickle of a song-strain;
Teevo cheevo cheevio chee:
O where, O where, what can that be?
Weedio-weedio: there again!
So tiny a trickle of a song-strain;
I am so very, O so very glad
That I do think there is not to be had
[Anywhere, any more joy to be in.
Cheevio:] when the cry within
Says Go on then I go on
Till the longing is less and the good gone
But down drop, if it says Stop,
To the all-a-leaf of the treetop
And after that off the bough
[Hover-float to the hedge brow.]
Through the velvety wind V-winged
[Where the shake shadow is sun's-eyed-ringed]
To the nest's nook I balance and buoy
With a sweet joy of a sweet joy,
Sweet, of a sweet, of a sweet joy
Of a sweet — a sweet — a sweet — sweet — joy. 
Gerard Manley Hopkins
