Liedtext: | Now the dancing sunbeams play On the green and glassy sea, Come, and I will lead the way Where the pearly treasures be. Come with me, and we will go Where the rocks of coral grow. Follow, follow, follow me. Come, behold what treasures lie Far below the rolling waves, Riches, hid from human eye, Dimly shine in ocean's caves. Ebbing tides bear no delay, Stormy winds are far away. Come with me, and we will go Where the rocks of coral grow. Follow, follow, follow me. |
