Dear little Fish

     
     
     
     I’ll feed you bread so you will grow.
     
     Each day, I’ll give you one sweet kiss
     
     And promise you I’ll never miss!
     
     But on the day , my dear little fish,
     
     You grow too big for your small dish.
     
     I will take you to the sea,
     
     And in one move, I’ll let you free.
     
     How you’ll be so glad to go,
     
     But dear little fish, I’ll miss you so.
     
     I will wait all through the day
     
     To see if you turn’ round this way.
     
     And I will wait all trough the night,
     
     To see if you come back in sight.
     
     Oh! I will throw my only hat
     
     To see if you will bring it back
     
     And the first joy that I will see,
     
     Is when you bring it home to me.
     
     Your back will be my favourite boat,
     
     And together we will sail and float.
     
     Over the river and cross’ the sea,
     
     To a small island with a palm tree.
     
     There we will both live and play,
     
     “Catch the hat” by night and day.
     
     And I will know your love for me
     
     For you came home when I set you free.
