Hortus Polypi
Velim sub mari esse
In horto polypi in umbra.
Sciens ubi fuimus, ille intro sinat
In eius horto polypi in umbra.
Amicos rogem meum hortum polypi
Mecum venireque videre.
Velim sub mari esse
In horto polypi in umbra.
Infra tempestatem calidi simus
In nostra latebra infra fluctibus,
Noster caput in terra sub mari quiescentes
In horto polypi prope cavernam.
Circa canamusque saltemus
Quia scimus nos inveniri non posse.
Velim sub mari esse
In horto polypi in umbra.
Clamemusque nemus circa curalium
Qui sub fluctibus stat.
O quale guadium omni pueroque puellae,
Scientes se beatique tuti esse.
Tam beati simus, te et me,
Ibi nullo dicente quid facere.
Velim sub mari esse,
In horto polypi tecum
In horto polypi tecum
In horto polypi tecum.
Octopus's Garden
I’d like to be under the sea
In an Octopus’s garden in the shade.
He’d let us in, knows where we’ve been,
In his Octopus’s garden in the shade.
I’d ask my friends to come and see
My Octopus’s garden with me.
I’d like to be under the sea
In an Octopus’s garden in the shade.
We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves,
Resting our head on the seabed
In an Octopus’s garden near a cave.
We would sing and dance around
Because we know we can’t be found.
I’d like to be under the sea
In an Octopus’s garden in the shade.
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves.
Oh what joy for every girl and boy,
Knowing they’re happy and they’re safe.
We would be so happy, you and me,
No one there to tell us what to do.
I’d like to be under the sea
In an Octopus’s garden with you,
In an Octopus’s garden with you,
In an Octopus’s garden with you.
