under the greenwood tree,
who loves to lie with me,
and turn his merry note
unto the sweet bird's throat,
come hither, come hither, come hither.
here he shall see,
no enemy.
but winter and rough weather,
who doth ambition shun,
and loves to live in the sun,
seeking the food he eats,
and pleased with what he gets-
come hither, come hither, come hither1
here shall he see.
no enemy
but winter and rough weather.
These are from shakespeare's "As you like it".
What do these verses mean?
INTERPRETATION
The narrator wants the birds in the tree and other animals around him to understand that he will not harm them. He is a lover of nature and wants to portray that humans, such as himself, are kind. The narrator warns that the harsh winter is coming, which is the real enemy, and it may kill those who do not migrate or seek shelter from the cold.
