Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, val-de-ri, val-de-ra ha ha ha ha ha
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, come join my happy song

I love to go a wandering along the mountain track
And as I go I love to sing, my knapsack on my back

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, val-de-ri, val-de-ra ha ha ha ha ha
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, my knapsack on my back

I wave my hat to all I meet. and they wave back to me
And blackbirds call so loud and sweet
From every green wood tree

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, val-de-ri, val-de-ra ha ha ha ha ha
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, from every green wood tree

Oh may I go a wandering until the day I die
Oh may I always laugh and sing beneath God's clear blue sky

Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, val-de-ri, val-de-ra ha ha ha ha ha
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, beneath God's clear blue sky
