Sail off there with me
Where the stars point o’er the sea
Till dawn, and again

I’ll wander with you
‘Round the most distant corners
Till we become lost

Winter wind brings spring
The smell of blossoms on it
As sky’s blue deepens

Shadows follow me
Even past crooked corners
Ever just behind

Let’s hang some branches
And dance beneath the starlight
Like dawn will ne’er come

Some days I can rest
Others my mind is weary
Yet can only whirl

I have but one wish:
That Earth and I remain one
Ere and after life

When will the sun come
Triumphant from behind clouds
To shine upon me?

The words of others
Swirl in a storm of bold type
In this dreaming head
