Mermaid's Song
Mermaid's Song
Poem
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
Deep below the rolling waves.
Riches hid from human eye
Dimly shine in ocean's caves;
Stormy winds are far away.
Ebbing tides brook no delay;
Follow, follow, follow me.
