Written in Early Spring
william wordsworth

I heard a thousand blended notes
While in a grove I sat reclined,
In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts
Bring sad thoughts to the mind.

To her fair works did Nature link
The human soul that through me ran;
And much it grieved my heart to think
What Man has made of Man.

Through primrose tufts, in that sweet bower,
The periwinkle trailed its wreaths;
And 'tis my faith that every flower
Enjoys the air it breathes.

The birds around me hopped and played,
Their thoughts I cannot measure -
But the least motion which they made
It seemed a thrill of pleasure.

The budding twigs spread out their fan
To catch the breezy air;
And I must think, do all I can,
That there was pleasure there.

If this belief from heaven be sent,
If such be Nature's holy plan,
Have I not reason to lament
What Man has made of Man?

[putty]

The happiness and pleasure W feels in viewing natural phenomena are being contrasted with the unhappiness that man has brought upon himself. He reads in, or hopes he sees in, Nature a spiritual force and asks why human relationships are so much different--if the heavenly plan is the pleasure and happiness he hopes is there because of the way he feels, then we surely mourn that the same experience doesn't exist between human beings.

Just paraphrase the stanzas sentence by sentence. Use your own words. The meaning of the poem is philosophical, but the content is pretty obvious.

hey by the way can somone explain these lines to me

To her fair works did Nature link
The human soul that through me ran

[putty]

Wordsworth sensed a connection between plants, animals, etc., and the human soul. Instead of using the word God, he uses a spiritual entity he calls Nature. We are getting into metaphysics here.
