A song of enchantment I sang me there

In a green green wood by waters fair

Just as the words came up to me 

I sang it under a wild wood tree



Widdershins turned I singing it low

Watching the wild birds come and go

No cloud in the deep dark to be seen 

Under the thick thatch branches green 



Twilight came silence came

The planet of evening's silver flame

By darkening paths I wandered through

Thickets trembling with drops of dew



But the music is lost and the words are gone

Of the song I sang as I sat along

Ages and ages have fallen on me

On the wood and the pool and the elder tree
