All The Diamonds - Mary Hopkin

All the diamonds in this world

That mean anything to me

Are conjured up by wind and sunlight

Sparkling on the sea

I ran aground in a harbor town

Lost the taste of being free

Thank God, He sent some gull-chased ship

To carry me to sea

Two thousand years

And half a world away

Dying trees still

Grow greener when you pray

Silver scales flash bright and fade

In reeds along the shore

Like a pearl in a sea of liquid jade

His ship comes shining

Like a crystal swan in a sky of suns

His ship comes shining
