《A Fairy Went A-Marketing》歌词

[00:00:00] A Fairy Went A-Marketing - Dame Clara Butt

[00:00:05] A fairy went a-marketing

[00:00:06] She bought a little fish

[00:00:08] She put it in a crystal bowl

[00:00:09] Upon a golden dish

[00:00:11] An hour she sat in wonderment

[00:00:12] And watched it's silver gleam

[00:00:14] And then she gently took it up

[00:00:16] And slipped it in a stream

[00:00:24] A fairy went a-marketing

[00:00:26] She bought a colored bird

[00:00:27] It sang the sweetest shrillest song

[00:00:29] That ever she had heard

[00:00:30] She sat beside it's painted cage

[00:00:32] And listened half the day

[00:00:33] And then she opened wide the door

[00:00:37] And let it fly away

[00:00:44] A fairy went a-marketing

[00:00:45] She bought a winter gown

[00:00:47] All stitched about with gossamer

[00:00:48] And lined with thistledown

[00:00:50] She wore it all the afternoon

[00:00:52] With prancing and delight

[00:00:53] Then gave it to a little frog

[00:00:57] To keep him warm at night

[00:01:08] A fairy went a-marketing

[00:01:09] She bought a gentle mouse

[00:01:11] To take her tiny messages

[00:01:12] To keep her tiny house

[00:01:14] All day she kept it's busy feet

[00:01:16] Pit patting to and fro

[00:01:18] And then she kissed it's silken ears

[00:01:23] Thanked it and let it go
