Came cantering out of the sky | B |
With bridle of silver and into the saddle I mounted | C |
To fly and to fly | B |
- | |
And we stretched up into the air fleeting on in the sunshine | D |
A speck in the gleam | E |
On galloping hoofs his mane in the wind out flowing | F |
In a shadowy stream | E |
- | |
And oh when all lone the gentle star of evening | F |
Came crinkling into the blue | G |
A magical castle we saw in the air like a cloud of moonlight | H |
As onward we flew | G |
- | |
And across the green moat on the drawbridge we foamed and we snorted | I |
And there was a beautiful Queen | J |
Who smiled at me strangely and spoke to my wild little Horse too | G |
A lovely and beautiful Queen | J |
- | |
And she cried with delight and delight to her delicate maidens | K |
'Behold my daughter my dear ' | - |
And they crowned me with flowers and then to their harps sate playing | F |
Solemn and clear | L |
- | |
And magical cakes and goblets were spread on the table | M |
And at window the birds came in | N |
Hopping along with bright eyes pecking crumbs from the platters | O |
And sipped of the wine | D |
- | |
And splashing up up to the roof tossed fountains of crystal | M |
And Princes in scarlet and green | J |
Shot with their bows and arrows and kneeled with their dishes | P |
Of fruits for the Queen | J |
- | |
And we walked in a magical garden with rivers and bowers | O |
And my bed was of ivory and gold | Q |
And the Queen breathed soft in my ear a song of enchantment | R |
And I never grew old | Q |
- | |
And I never never came back to the earth oh never and never | S |
How mother would cry and cry | B |
There'd be snow on the fields then and all these sweet flowers in the winter | S |
Would wither and die | B |
