Minnie and Winnie
Slept in a shell
Sleep, little ladies!
And they slept well
Pink was the shell within
Silver without
Sounds of the great sea
Wander'd about
Sleep, little ladies! Wake not soon!
Echo on echo Dies to the moon
Two bright stars Peep'd into the shell
'What are they dreaming of? Who can tell?'
Sleep, little ladies! Wake not soon!
Echo on echo Dies to the moon
Two bright stars Peep'd into the shell
'What are they dreaming of? Who can tell?'
Started a green linnet
Out of the croft
Wake, little ladies
The sun is aloft!
