There is a bright sunny island
An island far o'er the sea
That hides a treasure of gold dear
That you keep away from me
For that great prize I am craving
I think of it ev'ry day
Your heart's the treasure I want
On that beautiful isle far away
The south wind's blowing, the stars are glowing
My heart is filled with deep despair
For I am yearning my love is burning
To get the treasure waiting there
