The Bird Rock

[Intro]
        

[Verse]
                            
Row my child, to the bird rock
                           
Where the gulls are sailing free
                      
Dreams they do bring, and dreaming
                     
Dreams of the cold green sea

[Verse]
                               
And who would be there, but you love
                      
To see what dreams there be?
                 
Ho-ray, ho-ro, oh, hoo-ro

[Instrumental]
        

[Verse]
                     
Row you now, be rowing
                   
The day goes down before
                    
And the ship of fairies sailing
                    
To a dark and a distant shore

[Verse]
                          
And how would you say what treasures
                   
Would ever await them there?
                 
Ho-ray, ho-ro, oh, hoo-ro

[Instrumental]
        

[Verse]
                            
Sing my love, for the kingdom
                        
That ever we thought was gone
                      
For the ship of ghosts is sailing
                       
And that one will always return

[Verse]
                              
Drowned are the lands and gone the sails
                          
And the gull is their voice alone
                 
Ho-ray, ho-ro, oh, hoo-ro

[Instrumental]
        

[Verse]
                     
Row my dear, the day is fair
                              
Where the young birds learn to sing
                    
The world is a wheel of wonder
                  
That only the sun can spin

[Verse]
                               
And the gull on the low and lifting swell
                  
Is the world a-given wing
                            
Ho-ray, ho-ro, oh, hoo-ro
