Retreat to the magic land

There is magic land                                     

That only I have found                        

I’ll show it to you                                            

 

Come away with me dear                           

Let’s go past the meadow green               

To the narrow bridge                                   

 

Yes, it’s but a lane                                        

But watch out for fallen rocks                      

We have far to go                                         

 

Round this narrow bend                              

Nature is calling us here                              

For birds are singing

                                   

Can you see the sea?                                 

We will cross to the island               

In that little boat                                             

 

I must take the oars

Sit, lest it be unstable

though the sea is calm

 

We will see wild things

Beasts that swim and crawl and fly

But no, not wild bears

 

Here there are penguins

Seals, cormorants and a tern

Now to welcome us

 

It’s my magic land

It’s yours too if you promise

Keep it safe always
