English text

Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander ev'rywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;

And I serve the fairy queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green:
I do wander ev'rywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;

I do wander ev'rywhere,
Over hill, over dale, over park,
I do wander ev'rywhere,
Thorough bush…

The cowslips tall, her pensioners be;
In their gold coats spots you see;
These be rubies, fairy favours,
I must go seek some dew drops here,
And hang a pearl in ev'ry cowslip's ear.
Thorough bush…
