AURORA BORIE ALICE
(Walter Peirson Jr. / Samuel K. Stinger Jr.,   1909)


Little Eskimo, in your house of snow, 
Way up by the Polar Sea;

Yet there is no light the long Artic night, 
And I must soon go away;

Sweet Aurora Borie Alice, 
In your snowy crystal palace,
There's no girl in all the world compares to you, 
And although your skin is yellow, 
Yet I want to be your fellow, 
Underneath I know your heart is true.
