[Verse 1]
When you've grown up, my dears
And are as old as I
You'll often ponder on the years
That roll so swiftly by
My dears, that roll so swiftly by

[Verse 2]
And of the many lands
You will have journeyed through
You'll oft recall the best of all
The land your childhood knew
Your childhood knew

[Chorus]
Toyland! Toyland!
Little girl and boy land
While you dwell within it
You are ever happy then
Childhood's joyland
Mystical merry Toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can ne'er return again

[Verse 3]
When you've grown up, my dears
There comes a dreary day
When 'mid the locks of black appears
Thе first pale gleam of gray
My dears, thе first pale gleam of gray
[Verse 4]
And of the past you will dream
As gray-haired grown-ups do
And seek once more the phantom shore
The land your childhood knew
Your childhood knew

[Chorus]
Toyland! Toyland!
Little girl and boy land
While you dwell within it
You are ever happy then
Childhood's joyland
Mystical merry Toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can ne'er return again
