FULL FATHOM FIVE song lyrics
by William Shakespeare
sung to PAVANE by Gabriel Faure

Adapted by Joel Sattler
from THE TEMPEST

full fathom five
is where thy father lies
and those are pearls that were his eyes

no thing doth fade
but suffer a sea change
now into some thing rich and strange

come take my hands
upon these yellow sands
and curtsy kiss the wild wild waves

sea nymphs doth ring
the hour on his knell
I hear them ringing ding dong bell

we are the stuff
the stuff as dreams are all made of
and our little life
shall not last the endless night
I hear the chanticleer
the watch dogs now are near
and all, all shall dissolve

and now come take my hands
unto these yellow sands
and curtsy kiss the wild wild waves

sea nymphs doth ring
the hour on his knell
I hear them ringing ding dong bell

full fathom five
is where thy father lies
and those are pearls that were his eyes

no thing doth fade
but suffer a sea change
now into some thing rich and strange
