I'll set you a-swing in a purple bell Of the lady finger Where brown bees linger And loiter long I'll set you a-swing in a fairy dell To the silv'ry ring Of a fairy song I'll put you afloat in a boat of pearl On a moonlit sea Where your path shall be Of silver and blue To fairyland children, sweet girl To its rode-strewn strand bathed in glistining dew Bathed in glist'ning dew I'll make you a nest, a soft, warm nest In my heart's core Alanniv ashore When day is gone Where cosily curled on mother's breast My share o' the world You'll rest till dawn
