HARK! hark! the lark at heaven's gate sings,
And Phoebus 'gins arise,
His steeds to water at those springs
On chaliced flowers that lies;
And winking Mary-buds begin
To ope their golden eyes:
With everything that pretty bin,
My lady sweet, arise!
Arise, arise!
William Shakespeare

Marsh marigolds at sunrise spring
From Stratford's marshes green
Here Shakespeare beauty doth compare
With larks that sweetness sing

Phoebus is Apollo the sungod. This poem describes the sunlight striking a pond or
lake, flower buds opening. I'm not certain what the lark at heaven's gate refers to.
But since birds sing in the morning, I suppose the lark at heaven's gate also does.
