life is but a dream…
April 8th, 2006row, row, row your boat
gently down the stream
merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
life is but a dream…

Even an old nursery song can sound Buddhist.
Consider this excerpt from Reality in Buddhism (wikipedia):
In Buddhism the perceived reality is considered unreal (according to the Buddha: “Mañjushri, dreams appear but do not exist. Similarly all things, too, appear but do not exist.”…“They are illusory, like a mirage, a castle in the sky, the moon in water, a reflected image and an emanation.”[1])
