Just got this one handed to me as we changed shifts. Any help would be appreciated.
Looking for music to a song that goes:
Awake, awake, ye dreamers
The cuckoo loudly calls
The sun shines on the treetops
That grow on mountain walls

We are not positive that the firtst line is the same as the title. Our songbook index turns up nothing. An internet search has a family history mention of the song.
If we could be sure of the title, we could go from there.
It also may have been sung in rounds.
Please reply to my e-mail:

Thank you
