THREE WHITE DOVES
(folk song from Italy, English words by Marguerite Wilkinson)

There are three white doves a-flying, (3)
By the sea they cry. (3)
There are three white doves a-flying,
By the sea they cry. (3)

In the waves they dip their soft wings, (3)
Then soar to the sky! (3)
In the waves they dip their soft wings,
Then soar to the sky! (3)

S'a sun tre culumbe bianche, (3)
S'la riva del mar. (3)
S'a sun tre culumbe bianche,
S'la riva del mar. (3)

E lur van bagnesse j'ale, (3)
Suresse al sul. (3)
E lur van bagnesse j'ale,
Suresse al sul. (3)
