Row, row, gently row, On the water’s silvery flow! Timing all your bending oars, As ye pass the smiling shores! One by one new beauties rise, Charming all your hearts and eyes, Flowerets fair and stately trees, Trembling ’neath the summer breeze! Row, gently row, row, gently row, As the silvery waters flow, Breathing music soft and low! Row, gently row, row, row. Row, row, gently row, Blithely singing as ye go; Echoes all repeat your song, As ye urge the boat along! Water-lilies, white and gold, Blossom that ye may behold! Rippling wavelets rise and fall, Sweetly harmonizing all! Row, gently row, row, gently row, As the silvery waters flow, Breathing music soft and low! Row, gently row, row, row.
