Suspended from sleep like a feather floating in...
The ways of the night I feel...

Look up, behold the garnet star
High up in starry heavens far...

I looked up to the sky, the twilight rising,
In a Floridian park, saw a vision spellbinding...

Fair Aurora,
Paints her sky with brush strokes of amethyst...

Intrepid these winds that swirl through the...
On white marble clouds that coalesce in silence...

So here I am beside the lake
Where in past seasons I had run...

Ring of green round melting pearl
Fountain streams up to the sky...

The forest's sweet scents, they flow through the...
As I look upon a distant blue bay...

By Newport's waters, I once met
A fair maid on the windy beach...

Desert star of melting silver,
Gleaming through the clouds...

Shahrazad, dancer of the night
Behind the purple lattice of Persian screens...

On rails of steel, I flew away
O'er deep green swamp and windy bay...
