Do not deprive the dancing girl of morning
We must depict her lightly in the moon
Though daylight comes and takes her with its dawning
The dancing girl won't fade away too soon.
The summertime is slipping through her fingers,
She seizes at the morning like the dew
And clad in vapour fine that dies with sunlight
She dances lest the winter winds blow through
O dancing girl of mist and summer shadow
We paint your raiment lightly in the dawn
For though the winter sunlight steals your substance
Your dance, your summer's music lingers on.
