The Pirate Movie The Sisters' Song Lyrics

Written bu Gilbert & Sullivan, Trevor Farrant and Peter Sullivan
Sung by the Sisters

Climbing over rocky mountain,
Skipping rivulet and fountain,
Passing where the willows quiver,
Passing where the willows quiver
By the ever-rolling river,
Swollen with the summer rain, the summer rain
Threading long and leafy mazes
Dotted with unnumbered daisies,
Dotted, dotted with unnumbered daisies,
Scaling rough and rugged passes,
Climb the hardy little lasses,
Till the bright sea-shore they gain;
All polite, refined aristocrats except our little sister,
Mabel waits for love in vain.

Let us gaily tread the measure,
Make the most of fleeting leisure,
Worship nature while we can,
Far away from any man.

Climbing over rocky mountain,
Skipping rivulet and fountain,
Passing where the willows quiver,
Passing where the willows quiver
By the ever-rolling river,
Swollen with the summer rain, the summer rain
Let us gaily tread the measure,
Make the most of fleeting leisure,
Worship nature while we can,
Let us gaily tread the measure,
Make the most of fleeting leisure,
Far away from any man.
