My house is a home where happiness dwells
Filled with joy like the fragrance of flowers
There is nothing nicer in all the world
Than this dear little home of ours
My mother with her darning is a picture serene
She’s as bright as a shining star
I never remember our sweet cosy room
But I think of my darling Mama
When Daddy comes in the evening from work
With a yelp we’re all at the door
Most likely he’ll whisper as he bends to be kissed
There’s a great big surprise in store!
With eager hands we undo the strings.
Of a whacking big parcel of toys
Aero planes! Dolls! Fire-Engines! And things
Magic dreams of girls and boys!
There are doves in a nest on the roof above
They bill and they coo all day long
They’re only a joyful and glad refrain
To the tune of my heart’s happy song…..
