I love to go a- wan-der-ing,

A-bove the moun-tam track,

And asI go,  I love to sing,
My knap-sack on my back.

Val-de ri,  Val-de ra,
Val-de ra, Val-de ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,

Val-de ri,  Val-de ra,

My knap-sack on my back.

 

I love to wan-der by the stream,

That danc-es in the sun,

So joy-ous-ly it calls to me,

"Come! join my hap-py song!"

Val-de ri,  Val-de ra,
Val-de ra, Val-de ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,

Val-de ri,  Val-de ra,

My knap-sack on my back.
