Down from the mountains a gay little stream, Leaping along, leaping along, Sang a sweet tune to the sun's merry beam, Leaping along, along.
Murmuring stream, murmuring stream, Flow to the rolling sea ; Murmuring stream, murmuring stream, Singing of purity.
2. Cooling the grass in the long summer hours, Smiling along, smiling along ; Giving a drink to the birds and the flowers, Smiling along, along.
3. Wider and wider as onward you flow, Rippling along, rippling along ; Carry a blessing wherever you go, Rippling along, along.
4. Bright little streamlets we children may be, Singing along, singing along, Loving and helpful, pure-hearted and free, Singing along, along.
