“I dreamed that I went far across the sea...”
I dreamed that I went far across the sea
Where the sands were as yellow as yellow could be
And all around on the ground
Were heaps of oranges all bright and round.
II
And I thought how beautiful it would be to say
"How many oranges shall I eat to-day"
And of course I would ive some to my friends and to you
Oh! how I wish my dream would come true.
