Two small sweet lives together	A
From dawn till the dew falls down	B
They danced over rock and heather	A
Away from the dusty town	B
	-
Dark eyes like stars set in pansies	C
Blue eyes like a hero's bold	D
Their thoughts were all pearl light fancies	C
Their hearts in the age of gold	D
	-
They crooned o'er many a fable	E
And longed for the bright capped elves	F
The faery folk who are able	E
To make us faery ourselves	F
	-
A hush on the children stealing	G
They stood there hand in hand	H
For the elfin chimes were pealing	G
Aloud in the underland	H
	-
And over the grey rock sliding	G
A fiery colour ran	I
And out of its thickness gliding	G
The twinkling mist of a man	I
	-
To day for the children had fled to	H
An ancient yesterday	H
And the rill from its tunnelled bed too	H
Had turned another way	H
	-
Then down through an open hollow	J
The old man led with a smile	K
Come star hearts my children follow	J
To the elfin land awhile	K
	-
The bells above them were hanging	G
Whenever the earth breath blew	H
It made them go clanging clanging	G
The vasty mountain through	H
	-
But louder yet than the ringing	G
Came the chant of the elfin choir	A
Till the mountain was mad with singing	G
And dense with the forms of fire	A
	-
The kings of the faery races	L
Sat high on the thrones of might	H
And infinite years from their faces	L
Looked out through eyes of light	H
	-
And one in a diamond splendour	A
Shone brightest of all that hour	A
More lofty and pure and tender	A
They called him the Flower of Power	A
	-
The palace walls were glowing	G
Like stars together drawn	M
And a fountain of air was flowing	G
The primrose colour of dawn	M
	-
Ah see said Aileen sighing	G
With a bend of her saddened head	H
Where a mighty hero was lying	G
He looked like one who was dead	H
	-
He will wake said their guide 'tis but seeming	G
And oh what his eyes shall see	N
I will know of only in dreaming	G
Till I lie there still as he	N
	-
They chanted the song of waking	G
They breathed on him with fire	A
Till the hero spirit outbreaking	G
Shot radiant above the choir	A
	-
Like a pillar of opal glory	N
Lit through with many a gem	O
Why look at him now said Rory	N
He has turned to a faery like them	O
	-
The elfin kings ascending	G
Leaped up from the thrones of might	H
And one with another blending	G
They vanished in air and light	H
	-
The rill to its bed came splashing	G
With rocks on the top of that	H
The children awoke with a flashing	G
Of wonder What were we at	H
	-
They groped through the reeds and clover	A
What funny old markings look here	A
They have scrawled the rocks all over	A
It's just where the door was how queer	A
	-
September	A
