GOOD MORNING, MERRY SUNSHINE 37 



GOOD MORNING, MERRY SUNSHINE 



morning sunshine scared stopped 

 staying staid 



Good morning, merry sunshine, 

 How did you wake so soon ? 



You have scared the little stars away, 

 And driven away the moon. 



I saw you go to sleep last night, 

 Before I stopped my playing ; 



How did you get 'way over there, 

 And where have you been staying ? 



. I never go to sleep, dear child, 



I just go 'round to see 

 My little children of the east, 

 Who rise and watch for me. 



I waken all the birds and bees 



And flowers on my way, 

 And last of all the little child 



Who staid out late to play. 



EMILIE POULSSON.
