lyrics

This is a song for Miriame
Oh Miriame you pretty girl
Clearly bearing you daddy’s warmth
Mum’s pluck and Lucky vein

Oh honey bunny Miriame
Your uncle’s an amusing fool
His world you surely understand
Is that of castles made of sand

Miriame
I love to watch your folly
Miriame
Even when you brood, you look jolly

Miriame, Miriame

I sill recall when
You told me with a knowing smile
We often ride the same carrousel
But life is no merry-go round

Oh pretty rare bird Miriame
One day you will be wearing peals
Just remember that trinkets too
Look as lovely on a girl
Just remember that trinkets too
Look as lovely on a girl

Oh pretty, pretty Miriame
