Donovan - Voyage Of The Moon Lyrics
The Moon is like a boat, my love
Of lemon peel afloat, my love
And with a sail of gauze, my love
She seems to slightly pause
Upon her starry way
I see her pearly decks, my love
Set in with twinkling specks, my love
I see her pearly mast, my love
Far from her seashell past
And gently does she sway
All on her starry way
Of silk they have been spun, my love
Her ropes that limply run, my love
Down to her mermaid prow
And softly does she sway
All on her starry way
All in the Sea of Sky, my love
The moonships sail and fly, my love
Though many are their kind, my love
They all need but one wind
To make their starry way
To make their starry way
And there will come a time, my love
Oh, may it be in mine, my love
When men will proudly rise, my love
And board to sail the skies
Moonships from all the spheres
Moonships from all the spheres
The men be bathed in light, my love
The women clothed in white, my love
All in that woundrous fleet, my love
As each the other meets
Will smile and softly sing
Will smile and softly sing
And on some distant sand, my love
The ships will gently land, my love
Fair folk will meet them there, my love
With golden flowing hair
And great will be their joy
And great will be their joy

Donovan Voyage Of The Moon Comments
Just hearing this, it made me want to play and sing it to a young child, and then I looked it up, and indeed, it was from an album of Donovan's children's music. I guess he knew what he was doing.
I love the Mary Hopkin's version, make my tears cried, but this, reach my heart

2019🎶🌙
When I listened to the lyrics of this song today it made me cry.
What a gem he is.
Donovan m'accompagne toujours, chaque jour !!!
Never heard this before! Thank you. Beautiful. Artistry.
I'm 16, I've just found this gem and its been on repeat for hours. Its a shame music like this is rarely made anymore.
The Song of Wandering Aengeus
@wanderer_ poetry.
My brother and I grew up with music from the 40's-80's. We were like 5 & 10 year old hipsters. He bought us our first turntable from a garage sale, and the guy threw in a bunch of albums for free. Beach boys, Bee Gees, Beatles, The Monkees, Dion and the belmonts. We loved it haha, and refused to conform to the music of our peers back then. Somehow the music felt strangely nostalgic, like a memory should be there but only the feeling. But yeah, great music.
Very true. Check out Cat Stevens from the 70s a lot of his music is beautiful and loving. He was a huge star . You won't be sorry . One song " wild World"
Keep listening ,so much magic awaits you, enjoy!
спасибо для песня!
"The Voyage Of The Moon"
The moon is like a boat, my love
Of lemon peel afloat, my love
And with a sail of gauze, my love
She seems to slightly pause
Upon her silent way, all on her silent way.
I see her pearly decks, my love
Set in with twinkling specks, my love
I see her pearly mast, my love
Far from her seashell past
And gently does she sway, all on her starry way.
Of silk they have been spun, my love
Her ropes that limply run, my love
Down to her carved prow, my love
Down to her mermaid prow
And softly does she sway, all on her starry way.
All in the Sea of Sky, my love
The moonships sail and fly, my love
Though many are their kind, my love
Though all need but one wind
To make their starry way, to make their starry way.
And there will come a time, my love
O may it be in mine, my love
When men will proudly rise, my love
And board to sail the skies
Moonships from all the spheres, moonships from all the spheres.
The men he bathed in light, my love
The women clothed in white, my love
All in that woundrous fleet, my love
As each the other meets
Will smile and softly sing, will smile and softly sing.
And on some distant sand, my love
The ships will gently land, my love
Fair folk will meet them there, my love
With golden flowing hair
And great will be their joy, and great will be their joy.
The moon is like a boat, my love
Of lemon peel afloat, my love
And with a sail of gauze, my love
She seems to slightly pause.
I love picking this beautiful song!
First heard this album when I was 16 brings back mems, Linz
I just bought this CD and I am a happy, happy Donovan fan!
ah yes first heard this on Mary Hopkins album a cool and groovy little tune✌😎
Donevan ,his music truly speaks to people ✌️
One of Donivan's lovliest song... thanks.
a time and we heal wounds my Loves.......
Just noticing what a pretty voice he has.
It's the intermittent Scottish burr that makes it distinctive
love this LP and I told him so once here in Berkeley
a softly song during the Seaflight to the moon by DONOVAN
Probably one of his least known albums - and in my opinion one of the best
My mom still has this record, she would play it to me as a little girl. All children should grow up with this :-)
They're rather rare and valuable because it didn't sell very well.
This is beautiful.
Donovan for ever!
It's a tragedy that Metallica records are so cheap and inexpensive and Donovan's are so damn expensive!
Little schoolkids should be made to listen to artists from the sixties for free, cos that was the age of simple beauty, love and peace.
Just when I think I've heard all of Donovan's music, I stumble across something wonderful and new that brings tears to my eyes for its simple beauty.
He weaves his own description of himself more skilfully than I could ever do.
Wealth of the Forest - what an apt description of Donovan...
yes, yes...we all love our magical minstrel, Donovan ( Dhan-sanskrit for wealth,treasure and Van-the forest.) This is he, bearing precious gifts from the forest.
Voyage for a childs mind
indeed it's true :)
Дарья Ланина thank you
This is one of my favorite tunes ^^ I love how the guitar plays, and this is just pure Donovan-joy ! :D
