Fairy Land i Come our lovely lady nigh;

So, good night, with lullaby.


OVER hill, over dale,
William Shakespeare
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander everywhere, Fairy Land iii
Swifter than the moone's sphere;
And I serve the fairy queen, COME unto these yellow sands,
To dew her orbs upon the green: And then take hands:
The cowslips tall her pensioners be; Court'sied when you have, and kiss'd,--
In their gold coats spots you see; The wild waves whist,--
Those be rubies, fairy favours, Foot it featly here and there;
In those freckles live their savours: And, sweet sprites, the burthen bear.
I must go seek some dew-drops here, Hark, hark!
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear. Bow, wow,
The watch-dogs bark:
William Shakespeare Bow, wow.
Hark, hark! I hear
The strain of strutting chanticleer
Fairy Land ii Cry, Cock-a-diddle-dow!
YOU spotted snakes with double tongue,
William Shakespeare
Thorny hedgehogs, be not seen;
Newts and blind-worms, do no wrong;
Come not near our fairy queen.
Fairy Land v
Philomel, with melody,
Sing in our sweet lullaby; FULL fathom five thy father lies;
Lulla, lulla, lullaby; lulla, lulla, lullaby! Of his bones are coral made;
Never harm, Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nor spell nor charm, Nothing of him that doth fade,
Come our lovely lady nigh; But doth suffer a sea-change
So, good night, with lullaby. Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Weaving spiders, come not here; Ding-dong.
Hence, you long-legg'd spinners, hence! Hark! now I hear them--
Beetles black, approach not near; Ding-dong, bell!
Worm nor snail, do no offence.
William Shakespeare
Philomel, with melody,
Sing in our sweet lullaby;
Lulla, lulla, lullaby; lulla, lulla, lullaby!
Never harm,
Nor spell nor charm,
