Voyage of the Moon |
The Moon is like a boat, my love |
Of lemon peel afloat, my love |
And with a sail of gauze, my love |
She seems to slightlty pause |
Upon her starry way |
All on her starry way |
I see her pearly decks, my love |
Set in with twinkling specks, my love |
I see her pearly mast, my love |
Far from her seashell past |
And gently does she sway |
All on her starry way |
Of silk they have been spun, my love |
Her ropes that limply run, my love |
Down to her carved prow, my love |
Down to her mermaid prow |
And softly does she sway |
All on her starry way |
All in the Sea of Sky, my love |
The moonships sail and fly, my love |
Though many are their kind, my love |
They all need but one wind |
To make their starry way |
To make their starry way |
And there will come a time, my love |
Oh, may it be in mine, my love |
When men will proudly rise, my love |
And board to sail the skies |
Moonships from all the spheres |
Moonships from all the spheres |
The men be bathed in light, my love |
The women clothed in white, my love |
All in that woundrous fleet, my love |
As each the other meets |
Will smile and softly sing |
Will smile and softly sing |
And on some distant sand, my love |
The ships will gently land, my love |
Fair folk will meet them there, my love |
With golden flowing hair |
And great will be their joy |
And great will be their joy |
