LITTLE WHITE LILY
droop-eth sun-shine wait-ing
Little white Lily
Droopeth with pain
Waiting and waiting
For the wet rain.
Little White Lily
Holdeth her cup,
Rain is fast falling
And filling it up.
Little White Lily
Smells very sweet;
On her head sunshine,
Rain at her feet.
Thanks to the sunshine! Thanks to the rain! Little White Lily Is happy again.
