From the Knott, we see this Morecambe Bay
We eye the gentle meadows where sheep roam
Across the sea the Lakeland Hills arrayed
From a town of mills to this display
The joy of beauty on this scale unknown
From the Knott,hypnotic Morecambe Bay
Widen oh my eye, let colour play
The green, the blue, the purple, white the foam
Across the sea the Lakeland Hills arrayed
The River Kent pours out its water,sighs
The viaduct excites the child with charm
From the Knott, we see grand Morecambe Bay
At last we understand true life divine
From the train, we see the sea alarmed
Across the Bay the Langdale Pikes align
For a while, forget the world, its harms
Let the air and water be our balm
From the Knott, we see vast Morecambe Bay
Across the sea the Lakeland Hills survey
