The Moon Maiden's Song
Sleep! Cast thy canopyOver this sleeper's brain,Dim grow his memory,When he wake again.
Love stays a summer night,Till lights of morning come;Then takes her winged flightBack to her starry home.
Sleep! Yet thy days are mine;Love's seal is over thee:Far though my ways from thine,Dim though thy memory.
Love stays a summer night,Till lights of morning come;Then takes her winged flightBack to her starry home.
