Lyrics:

A little fairy comes at night
Her eyes are blue, and her hair is brown
With silver spots upon her wings
And from the moon she flutters down

She has a little silver wand
And when a good child goes to bed
She waves a hand from right to the left
Makes a circle 'round its head

And then it dreams of pleasant things
Of fountains filled with fairy fish
And trees that bear delicious fruit
And bow their branches at a wish

Of arbours filled with dainty scents
From lovely flowers that never fade
Bright flies that glitter in the sun
And glowworms shining in the shade

And talking birds with gifted tongues
For singing songs and telling tales
And pretty dwarfs to show the way
Through fairy hills and fairy dales

A little fairy comes at night
Her eyes are blue, and her hair is brown
With silver spots upon her wings
From the moon she flutters down
