The Happy Wanderer

Chorus:
Val-der-ri, val-der-ra. . .
Val-der-ri, val-der-ra ra ra ra ra ra. . .
Val-der-ri, val-der-ra. . .
(sing the last line of the verse).
I love to go a-wandering,
Along the mountain track,
And as I go, I love to sing,
My knapsack on my back.

I love to wander by the stream,
That dances in the sun,
So joyously it calls to me,
Come join my happy song.

I wave my hat to all I meet,
And they wave back at me,
And blackbirds call so loud and clear,
From every greenwood tree.

Oh, may I go a-wandering,
Until the day I die,
And may I always laugh and sing,
Beneath God's clear blue sky.
