作曲 : Douglas
Oh, some scholar! Oh, some sailor!
Oh, some wise man from the skies!
Please to tell a little pilgrim
Where the place called morning lies!
I never seen a moor,
I never seen the sea;
Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God,
Nor visited  him in heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the charts were given
Will there really be a morning?
Is there such a thing as day?
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?
Has it feet like water-lilies?
Has it feathers like a bird?
Is it brought from famous countries
Of which I have never heard?
Oh, some scholar! Oh, some sailor!
Oh, some wise man from the skies!
Please to tell a little pilgrim
Where the place called morning lies!
Will there really be a morning?
Is there such a thing as day?
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?
Oh, some scholar! Oh, some sailor!
Oh, some wise man from the skies!
Please to tell a little pilgrim
Where the place called morning lies!
