Slender as the willow-wand, clearer than the water.

When the night-shadows fall, then the door will open,

Now let the song begin! Let us sing together!

Of sun, stars, moon and mist, rain and cloudy weather,

Light on the budding leaf, dew on the feather,
A F#m B
Wind on the open hill, bells on the heather...
