Let Us
Let us run
Let us run
Through the fields in the sun
Where the grasses and flower stalks sway
Let us dance
Let us dance
Let us gambol and prance
In the glorious light of the day
Let us dream
Let us dream
Let us glimmer and gleam
Where our thoughts and our fancy take flight
Let us fly
Let us fly
Through the clouds in the sky
In the twinkling stars of the night
Let us run
Through the fields in the sun
Where the grasses and flower stalks sway
Let us dance
Let us dance
Let us gambol and prance
In the glorious light of the day
Let us dream
Let us dream
Let us glimmer and gleam
Where our thoughts and our fancy take flight
Let us fly
Let us fly
Through the clouds in the sky
In the twinkling stars of the night
