Tis sundown.
The golden sunlight tints the bule sea.
Paints the hill and gilds the palm tree,
Happy be, my love, at sundown.
’Tis sundown.
The multi-coloured dancing sunbeam
Brightly shines on in my heart’s dream
Of the one I love, at sundown.
The birds come to their nest
At peace, they bill and coo.
The wide world sinks to rest,
And so do I and so do you.
‘Tis sundown.
In splendour sinks the sun, comes twilight,
Day is done, now greets the cool night.
Happy be, my love, at sundown.
