An English Country Garden Lyrics - Nana Mouskouri

(Sharpe/Jordan) 

How many gentle flowers grow 

In an English country garden? 

I'll tell you now of some I know 

And those I'll miss I hope you'll pardon 

Daffodils, heart's ease and flox 

Meadowsweet and lilly stalks 

Gentain, lupine and tall hollihocks 

Roses, foxgloves, snowdrops, forget-me-nots 

In an English country garden.

How many insects find their home 

In an English country garden? 

I'll tell you now of some I know 

Those I miss I hope you'll pardon 

Dragonflies, moths and bees 

Spiders falling from the trees 

Butterflies sway in the mild gentle breeze 

There are hedgehogs that roam 

And little gnomes 

In an English country garden. 

How many songbirds make their nests 

In an English country garden? 

I'll tell you now of some I know 

Those I miss I hope you'll pardon 

Bobolink, coo cooing doves 

Robins and the whirlwind thrush 

Bluebird, lark, pigeon, nightingale 

We all smile in the spring 

When the birds all start to sing 

In an English country garden.
