I know a wonderful
land o'er the sea,
where the sweet breeze
wafts a welcome to thee.
Beautiful valleys
where lovers may stray,
Moments go by
like a bright summer's day,
Music entrancing
with notes that swell,
Ringing as sweet
as a silv'ry bell;
Come with me some time
so you can see,
this beautiful land
from all care so free.

Manyanna, Manyanna,
alluring dream land of tomorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
you never know trouble or sorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
I'll love you for ever it seems,
though far away
How I long each day
for my wonderful land of dreams.

Manyanna, Manyanna,
alluring dream land of tomorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
you never know trouble or sorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
I'll love you for ever it seems,
though far away
How I long each day
for my wonderful land of dreams.

Nightly I dream
of this wonderful land,
nightly I see its
broad rivers so grand.
Perfume of flowers
whose scent fills the air,
Gaily dressed lovers
are seen ev'rywhere,
cool sparkling fountains
where all the day,
bright little children
they romp and play,
But when I wake
I just sigh, it seems,
and cry it seems,
for my land of dreams.

Manyanna, Manyanna,
alluring dream land of tomorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
you never know trouble or sorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
I'll love you for ever it seems,
though far away
How I long each day
for my wonderful land of dreams.

Manyanna, Manyanna,
alluring dream land of tomorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
you never know trouble or sorrow,
Manyanna, Manyanna,
I'll love you for ever it seems,
though far away
How I long each day
for my wonderful land of dreams.
