Nursery Rhyme: The Fairy Folk
Come, cuddle close in Daddys coat Beside the fire so bright, And hear about the fairy folk That wander in the night.
For when the stars are shining clear And all the world is still They float across the silver moon From hill to cloudy hill.
Their caps of red, their clocks of green, Are hung with silver bells, And when they're shaken with the wind Their merry ringing swells.
And riding on the crimson moth With black spots on her wings, They guide them down the purple sky With golden bridle rings.
They love to visit girls and boys To see how sweet they sleep, To stand beside their cosy cots And at their faces peep.
For in the whole of fairyland They have no finer sight Than little children sleeping sound With faces rosy bright.
On tip-toe crowding round their heads When bright the moonlight beams, They whisper little tender words That fill their minds with dreams.
And when they see a sunny smile With lightest finger tips They lay a hundred sweet upon the ruddy lips.
And then the little spotted moths Spread out their crimson wings, And bear away the fairy crowd With shaking bridle rings.
Come, bairnies, hide in Daddy's coat Beside the fire so bright Perhaps the little fairy folk Will visit you tonight.
