She dances,
Atop the sparkling stream
She sings,
Inside the deepest dream
Her slim form,
Is wrapped in the ribbons of passion
Her eyes,
Reflect the river, compassion
The silk of destiny
Cloaks her in its solace
It binds truth to reality
Holding sorrow in abyss
Her song
Is that of the water
Calling, calling
As she sings a nightly lullaby
Falling, falling
She plunges into fantasy's sky
And then she fades away
As the dreaming awaken
As the night shifts into day
As doubts become mistaken
For a false belief
Nature is lonely yet again!
As is heard cry of the leaf
Her sympathetic smile
Is still seen
In the eyes of the stream
As the fairy
Vanishes,
Into forgotten dreams
