Out of the gloom of grit and grey
Out of the fog and the cold
Ye shall pass to a land where the peacocks play
In a garden of green and gold;
Where big blue butterflies haunt the glades
And the snow-white egret dreams,
And rubies are found by nut-brown maids
Wading in orange streams......
Out of the gloom of grit and grey
Out of the fog and the cold
Ye shall pass to a land where the peacocks play
In a garden of green and gold;
Where big blue butterflies haunt the glades
And the snow-white egret dreams,
And rubies are found by nut-brown maids
Wading in orange streams......
