I've traveled far
The land and the sea
Beautiful places
I happened to be
One little town
I'll never forget
Is Lourdes
The village of St. Bernadette
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
There, like a dream
This wonderful night
I gazed at the grotto
Aglow in the light
A feeling divine
Swept over me there
I fell to my knees
As I whispered the prayer
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
Now I am home
I'm happy to be
Telling of places
I've traveled to see
One little town
I'll never forget
Is Lourdes
The village of St. Bernadette
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
Ave, ave, ave, Maria
