There are fairies at the bottom of our garden!
It's not so very, very far away;
You pass the gardener's shed and you just keep straight ahead-
I do so hope they've really come to stay.
There's a little wood, with moss in it and beetles,
And a little stream that quietly runs through;
You wouldn't think they'd dare to come merrymaking there-
Well, they do.

There are fairies at the bottom of our garden!
They often have a dance on summer nights;
The butterflies and bees make a lovely little breeze,
And the rabbits stand about and hold the lights.
Did you know that they could sit upon the moonbeams
And pick a little star to make a fan,
And dance away up there in the middle of the air?
Well, they can.

There are fairies at the bottom of our garden!
You cannot think how beautiful they are;
They all stand up and sing when the Fairy Queen and King
Come gently floating down upon their car.
The King is very proud and very handsome;
The Queen-now can you guess who that could be?
(She's a little girl all day, but at night she steals away)
Well-it's me!

 

Fairy Tale

by
Carla Vredeling

Fairy tales for those who believe,
are not a tale at all.
Ther're whispered to us in our dreams,
by fairies one and all.
So drift with me to slumber land;
so see a wondrous sight,
just place your hand in the fairy's hand;
and fly into the night.
