Go make a moment's raid | B |
To the west escape the earth | C |
Before your pennons fade | B |
West west o'ertake the night | D |
That flees the morning sun | E |
There's a path between the stars | F |
A black and silent one | E |
O tremble when you near | G |
The smallest star that sings | H |
Only the farthest star | I |
Is cool for willow wings | H |

There's a sky within the west | J |
There's a sky beyond the skies | K |
Where only one star shines | L |
The Star of Laughing Bells | M |
In Chaos land it lies | K |
Cold as morning dew | N |
A gray and tiny boat | O |
Moored on Chaos shore | P |
Where nothing else can float | O |
But the Wings of the Morning strong | Q |
And the lilt of laughing song | Q |
From many a ruddy throat | O |

For the Tree of Laughing Bells | M |
Grew from a bleeding seed | R |
Planted mid enchantment | S |
Played on a harp and reed | R |
Darkness was the harp | T |
Chaos wind the reed | R |
The fruit of the tree is a bell blood red | U |
The seed was the heart of a fairy dead | U |
Part of the bells of the Laughing Tree | V |
Fell to day at a blast from the reed | R |
Bring a fallen bell to me | V |
Go the maiden said | U |
For the bell will quench our memory | V |
Our hope | W |
Our borrowed sorrow | X |
We will have no thirst for yesterday | Y |
No thought for to morrow | X |
