Long Firm Freddie Herring our Joy - CD Available (from mg) (29) RE: Upcoming herring cd (from mg) 03 Apr 21


Wynken, Blynken, and Nod, a poem written by Eugene Field and published in 1889:

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod one night
sailed off in a wooden shoe —
Sailed on a river of crystal light,
into a sea of dew.
"Where are you going, and what do you wish?"
the old moon asked the three.
"We have come to fish for the herring fish
that live in this beautiful sea;
Nets of silver and gold have we!"
said Wynken, Blynken, and Nod.

It's been set to music a number of times; perhaps the Wellerman Shanty tune could be adapted...
