St. Patrick's Day, verse # 2

Happy St. Patrick’s Day…

Leprechauns dance around with grins,
pots of gold within their reach,
the end of the rainbow is glowing,
and as they dance they sing,
a key to dreams is in their hands,
a key that holds the magic,
but you must catch the leprechaun
to catch the key that has it,
close your eyes, pass through the veil,
the nightfall, it shall lead,
the leprechauns are dancing
in a world of make believe,
and as they dance around and grin,
drinking pints there near the gold,
singing songs of merriment
there where the rainbow glows,
they hear your step along the stones,
a golden path that led you here,
but no luck in grabbing key or gold,
when they heard you they disappeared,
but never give up hope or heart,
always keep the faith,
the leprechauns will wait again for you,
they like to play this game,
maybe, someday, you’ll cross the veil,
a four-leaf clover on your ring,
sneak upon the little leprechauns
as they dance and sing,
catching one near a pot of gold,
he’ll give you his magic key,
every wish you make, you shall have,
the leprechaun shall make it be.
