Bilingual
Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe
Sailed on a river of crystal light
Into a sea of blue
"Now 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
That's of silver and gold," and we said
Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod
ย
The old moon laughed and sang a song
As they rocked in the wooden shoe
And the wind that sped them all night long
Ruffled the waves of dew
Well the little stars were the herring fish
That lived in the beautiful sea
"Now cast your nets wherever you wish
Never afraid are we," so sang the stars
To the fishermen three
Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod
ย
All night long their nets they drew
To the stars in their twinkling home
Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe
Bringing the fishermen home
'Twas all so pretty a sight it seemed
As if it could not be
And some folks thought 'twas a dream they dreamed
Of sailing the beautiful sea
"Well I shall name you the fishermen three
Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod"
ย
Now Winkin' and Blinkin' are two little eyes
And Nod is a little head
And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies
Is a wee white cloud nobed
So close your eyes while Daddy sings
Of the beautiful sights that be
You will see the wonderful things
As you rock in the misty sea
Where the old moon taught the fishermen three
Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod
