A faery's song of the beauty of midsummer. |
Unsariel, Unsariel, whither dost thou fly? Beyond the moon, above the stars A sparkle in God's eye The nightingales of yonder dale Have flown on shadow wings to thee And here at last, where all shadows fade Thou shall dance at last with me On Summer's Eve when night is nigh And twin lights lighten up the sky Around the trees of mountain glen And here the dancing shall begin Two faery maidens, you and I *** The winds that've swept the noble bows For endless ages past Shall swirl about, our song uplift In echoes that shall ever last Time shall halt and life shall change And patterns more intricate still devise Creaters, spirits, worlds estranged Shall laugh beneath colliding skies Flame shall light the paths awinding Earth shall blossom, ways unbinding Spring and brook that run to sea Shall sing their canticle as we Take in thought to heaven's heights The secrets of the winds in finding *** Lissome, lilting, lithe of limb Spinning twirling, shadow whirling Two maidens dancing in the woods Breezes twining in our hair All creation before us laid Fay and fey and faery fair. |
