Little Girl, Little Girl

Little girl, little girl,
You’re a bud blooming;
Little girl, little girl,
Your future is booming.
What is it holding?
Just wait and behold:
It’ll be unfolding
Silver and gold.

Little girl, little girl,
You’re a budding beauty;
Little girl, little girl,
May you do your duty
To one and all
Better than your best,
And have a ball
Spreading joy and zest.

Little girl, little girl,
May angels bless you;
Little girl, little girl,
May fortune caress you.
May you bloom and grow,
Spreading mirth;
May you bloom and bestow
Heaven on earth.
