Goblin Gold

If you see a Toadstool ring

where the Thornies grow,

Turn your jacket inside-out,

Goblins are below.

Should you hear a tap-tap-tap

far beneath the ground,

Goblin folk are digging gold,

do not make a sound.

Those who seek to steal the hoard of

treasure, glowing bright, their

eyes will soon be stone for they are

Doomed to endless night!

Goblin Gold's enchanted gold,

never must it be

shown to Mortals, only Changelings,

Nevermore to see!
