I know a valley sweet and golden,
I know a valley fair to see,
Here where the dreams of life be folden,
One with the vale and the slumb’ring sea.
Here where the wind-blown barley whispers
Secrets that come to our hearts so true,
Sunlight and shadow softly tell me,
Here ‘twas you lov’d me and I lov’d you.

Ah! my laughing valley,
Winds blow as sweet today,
Here let us meet, here let us greet,
One with the winds at play.
Skies are blue and rich the clover,
Laughter rings the wide world over;
Come away! Come today!
Come and keep love’s holiday.

I know a valley sweet and golden,
Lit by the light of the harvest moon;
Summer may pass and its dreams grow olden,
Fragrant for ever our way is strewn.
Do you remember corn’flow’rs dancing,
Do you remember when love was new?
Here in the heart of the shining valley,
Here ‘twas you lov’d me and I lov’d you.

Ah! my laughing valley,
Winds blow as sweet today,
Here let us meet, here let us greet,
One with the winds at play.
Skies are blue and rich the clover,
Laughter rings the wide world over;
Come away! Come today!
Come and keep love’s holiday.
