'Tis sundown The golden sunlight tints the blue sea, Paints the hill and gilds the palm tree. Happy be, my love, at sundown. 'Tis sundown. The multi-coloured dancing sunbeam Brightly shines on in my heart's dream Of the one I love, at sundown. The birds come to their nest- At peace, they bill and coo. The wide world sinks to rest, And so do I and so do you. 'Tis sundown. In splendour sinks the sun, comes twilight, Day is done, now greets the cool night. Happy be, my love, at sundown.
