Over hill, over dale,
Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander every where,
I do wander every where,
Swifter than the moone's sphere;
Swifter than the moone's sphere;
And I serve the fairy queen,
And I serve the fairy queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green:
To dew her orbs upon the green:
The cowslips tall her pensioners be;
The cowslips tall her pensioners be;
In their gold coats spots you see;
In their gold coats spots you see;
Those be rubies, fairy favours,
Those be rubies, fairy favours,
In those freckles live their savours:
In those freckles live their savours:
I must go seek some dew-drops here
I must go seek some dew-drops here
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.

Original text and translations

How now, spirit, whither wander you?

Over hill, over dale,

Thorough bush, thorough brier,

Over park, over pale,

Thorough flood, thorough fire,

I do wander every where,

Swifter than the moone's sphere;

And I serve the fairy queen,

To dew her orbs upon the green:

The cowslips tall her pensioners be;

In their gold coats spots you see;

Those be rubies, fairy favours,

In those freckles live their savours:

I must go seek some dew-drops here

And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.
