When winter came this year she found me well prepared for her
|
The flame well fed with pine, shuttered windows oakwood doors
|
From the low dales come the fiddler, gave his tunes their flight
|
Don't know her name or the dance that became her so well
|
From topmost limb of night's dark tree
|
Tonight my lantern light floats free
|
The ladies danced so well, the ladies danced so light
|
But it was not mortal step drew me from my guests to meet the night
|
Snow lies deep with friends unseen
|
I will light my eyes to Venus green
|
Holding my life with a hope
|
When the midnight skies rise,
|
She flies---
