Under the Sea

Under the sea, the great wide sea
  That sweeps the golden shore;
What treasures lie beneath the waves
  Forevermore!
Ask of the winds, the sobbing winds
  That toss the waves on high;
And fling the burden of their song
  Unto the sky.
Ask of the stars, the jeweled stars
  That sleep within the tide;
Like golden lilies floating far,
  And swinging wide.
Ask of the clouds that drift at noon
  In fadeless seas of blue,
And looking down see skies beneath
  Of deeper hue.
Up in the sky, the golden clouds
  Will never make reply;
Deep in the sea, the jeweled stars
  In silence lie.
Under the sea, the great wide sea
  That sweeps the golden shore,
Are secrets hidden from us now
  And evermore.
