| [00:34.75] |
Where dips the rocky highland |
| [00:37.99] |
Of sleuth wood in the lake |
| [00:41.30] |
There lies a leafy island |
| [00:44.80] |
Where flapping herons wake |
| [00:48.19] |
The drowsy water rats |
| [00:51.25] |
There we've hid our fairy vats |
| [00:55.21] |
Full of berries |
| [00:58.21] |
And of reddest stolen cherries. |
| [01:01.91] |
|
| [01:02.71] |
Come away oh human child |
| [01:06.43] |
To the waters and the wild |
| [01:09.82] |
With a fairy hand in hand |
| [01:13.22] |
For the world's more full of weeping |
| [01:16.92] |
Than you can understand |
| [01:20.83] |
|
| [01:22.00] |
Where the wave of moonlight glosses |
| [01:25.50] |
The dim grey sands with light |
| [01:28.92] |
By far off furthest rosses |
| [01:32.48] |
We foot it all the night |
| [01:35.94] |
Weaving olden dances |
| [01:39.16] |
Mingling hands and mingling glances |
| [01:42.53] |
Till the moon has taken flight |
| [01:46.12] |
To and fro we leap |
| [01:49.47] |
And chase the frothy bubbles |
| [01:52.56] |
While the world is full of troubles |
| [01:56.02] |
And is anxious in its sleep. |
| [02:00.85] |
|
| [02:01.46] |
Come away oh human child |
| [02:04.70] |
To the waters and the wild |
| [02:08.09] |
With a fairy hand in hand |
| [02:11.51] |
For the world's more full of weeping |
| [02:15.14] |
Than you can understand |
| [02:19.85] |
|
| [02:33.28] |
Where the wandering water gushes |
| [02:36.81] |
From the hills above Glen-Car |
| [02:40.14] |
In pools among the rushes |
| [02:43.68] |
That scarce could bathe a star |
| [02:47.13] |
We seek for slumbering trout |
| [02:50.33] |
And whispering in their ears |
| [02:54.09] |
Give them unquiet dreams |
| [02:57.26] |
Leaning softly out |
| [03:00.31] |
From ferns that drop their tears |
| [03:04.15] |
Over the young streams |
| [03:07.42] |
Come away oh human child |
| [03:11.01] |
To the waters and the wild |
| [03:14.36] |
With a fairy hand in hand |
| [03:17.64] |
For the world's more full of weeping |
| [03:21.24] |
Than you can understand |
| [03:26.13] |
|
| [03:40.39] |
Away with us he's going |
| [03:43.92] |
The solemn-eyed |
| [03:47.19] |
He'll hear no more the lowing |
| [03:50.47] |
Of the calves on the warm hillside |
| [03:53.92] |
Or the kettle on the hob |
| [03:57.16] |
Sing peace into his breast |
| [04:00.84] |
Or see the brown mice bob |
| [04:04.04] |
Round and round the oatmeal chest. |
| [04:06.96] |
|
| [04:07.41] |
For he comes, the human child |
| [04:10.70] |
To the waters and the wild |
| [04:14.30] |
With a fairy hand in hand |
| [04:17.39] |
For the world's more full of weeping |
| [04:21.26] |
Than you can understand |
