- When I was a beggarly boy,
- And lived in a cellar damp,
- I had not a friend nor a toy,
- But I had Aladdin's lamp;
- When I could not sleep for cold,
- I had fire enough in my brain,
- And builded with roofs of gold
- My beautiful castles in Spain!
- Since then I have toiled day and night,
- I have money and power good store,
- But, I'd give all my lamps of silver bright
- For the one that is mine no more;
- Take, Fortune, whatever you choose,
- You gave, and may snatch again;
- I have nothing 't would pain me to lose,
- For I own no more castles in Spain!
