Poems (Piatt)/Volume 2/Let us go to Fairyland
LET US GO TO FAIRYLAND.
Let us go to Fairyland
From the rain and from the snow.
Somewhere in the enchanted sand
May be footsteps we should know.
Come, I prithee, let us go.
From the rain and from the snow.
Somewhere in the enchanted sand
May be footsteps we should know.
Come, I prithee, let us go.
Yes, the child we loved was fair,
But too fragile was his hand.
But too golden was his hair.
He has gone to Fairyland;—
Looking thither need we stand?
But too fragile was his hand.
But too golden was his hair.
He has gone to Fairyland;—
Looking thither need we stand?
