Gay little dandelion
Language: English
Gay little dandelion light up the meads Swings on her slender foot, telleth her beads, Lists to the Robin's note poured from above, Wise little dandelion ask not for love. Pale little dandelion in her white shroud Neareth the Angel breeze, call from the clouds Tiny plumes fluttering, make no delay, Little winged dandelion soareth away.
