Bringing in the Harvest |
| Bringing in the harvest |
| We are gathering the grain |
| Weathered by the sun |
| And gently swollen by the rain |
| Golden days of summer gladness |
| Blood red poppies tinged with sadness |
| Wheat fields gently waving |
| From a wartime aerodrome |
| Here’s to those who work the fields |
| And bring the harvest home |
| Bringing in the harvest |
| All the gifts of nature’s grace |
| Hand me down my brushes |
| I will paint her smiling face |
| Apples, pears and black-red cherries |
| Strawberries and loganberries |
| Hop fields reaching high |
| Wherever thirsty travellers roam |
| Here’s to those who graft all day |
| And bring the harvest home |
| Bringing in the harvest |
| All the bounties of the deep |
| Rising from the seabed sands |
| Where shipwrecked sailors sleep |
| Twisting currents test the stranger |
| Gathering storms bring hidden danger |
| A shift of wind can snap the teeth |
| Of any mermaid’s comb |
| Here’s to those who risk their lives |
| And bring the harvest home |
