Come where water-lilies grow
On the placid lake;
Where the wavelets, soft and low,
Sweetest music make.
We will launch our fairy boat,
On the rippling wavelet float;
Drifting, dreaming, to and fro,
Where sweet lilies grow.
Come where sunbeams gleam and glance,
Skies of blue smile o’er;
And the zephyrs gaily dance,
Still from shore to shore.
Come where fragrant blossoms rest,
Nor from dreams awake;
As the slumber on the breast
Of the peaceful lake.
Come before the birdlets sleep,
And the shadows fall;
Ere the stars their watches keep
Brightly over all.
