To Lost and Ancient Gardens |
My love is petals and dew |
The Erthe, the wilderness too |
For a fonder man, there is none |
Who admires her like the Sun |
Shining down so she may glow… |
But a maid stood alone |
In the trees, overgrown |
And she pondered the plight |
Of the rose |
She drank the dew from the rose |
I drank the dew from the rose |
I envy the one that she chose |
His stare and longing did grow |
Then she offered me a sip |
But I dare not touch my lip |
Where the serpent’s tongue hath coiled |
For a man she desires |
And indeed one she would have |
If I should but meet |
Her gaze |
A man like you I’ve never known |
Her words a womanly moan |
So lonely he must remain alone |
Her dress so perfectly sewn |
If you’d come away with me |
We shall never lonely be |
What a travesty it would be |
Have you never felt the touch |
If our eyes should fondly meet |
Of a maid politely struck |
By a man so handsome as you? |
Come away, silly man |
No, no |
‘Tis a green and pleasant land |
This cannot be |
That awaits us through the trees |
She has led me through the trees |
The Erthe, she whimpers neath my feet |
Her tears, they beg me not to leave |
Although sadder tales have been told |
None so truthful |
Or so old |
As the man |
And his maid |
Gladly joined |
