FAIRY KINGA
-
-
The breeze is on the Blue bellsB
The wind is on the leaC
Stay out stay out my little ladD
And chase the wind with meC
If you will give yourself to meC
Within the fairy ringA
At deep midnightE
When stars are brightE
You'll hear the Blue bells ringA

On slender stems they swingA
-
The rustling wind the whistling windG
We'll chase him to and froH
We'll chase him up we'll chase him downI
To where the King cups growH
And where old Jack o' Lantern waitsJ
To light us on our wayK
And far behindG
Upon the windG
The Blue bells seem to playK
DC

DINGA
Lest we should go astrayK
-
So gay that fairy musicL
So jubilant those bellsB
How days and weeks and months go byM
No happy listener tellsB
The toad stools are with sweetmeats spreadN
The new Moon lends her lightE
And ringers smallO
Wait one and allO
To ring with all their mightE
DC
DI DINF
DINGA
And welcome you to nightE

My mother made me promiseQ
To be in time for teaC
'Go home go home ' the breezes sayK
That sigh along the leaC
I dare not give myself awayK
For what would Mother doR
I wish I mightE
Stay out all nightE
At fairy games with youR
DC
DI DINF
DINGA
And hear the bells of blueR
-
But Father sleeps beneath the grassS
And Mother is aloneT
And who would fill the pails and fetchU
The wood when I am goneV
And who when little Sister ailsW
Can comfort her but meC
Her cries and tearsX
Would reach my earsY
Through all the melodyC
DC
DI DINF
DINGA
Of Blue bells on the leaC
-
The sun was on the Blue bellsB
The lad was on the leaC
Oh wondrous bells Oh fairy bellsB
I pray you ring to meC
I only did as Mother badeZ
For tea I did not careA2
And winds at nightE
Give more delightE
Than all this noonday glareA2
DC
DI DINF
DINGA
No sound of bells was thereA2

-
The snow lies o'er the Blue bellsB
A storm is on the leaC
Our hearth is warm the fire burns brightE
The flames dance merrilyC
Oh Mother dear I would no moreB2
That on that summer's dayK
Within the ringA
The Fairy KingA
Had stolen me awayK
DC
DI DINF
DINGA
To where the Blue bells playK
-
Yet when the storm is loudestC2
At deep midnight I dreamD2
And up and down upon the leaC
To chase the wind I seemD2
While by my side in feathered capE2
There runs the Fairy KingA
And down belowH
Beneath the snowH
We hear the Blue bells ringA
DC
DI DINF
DINGA
Such happy dreams they bringA
