I rise here in the early morn,
shadows fleeing before the dawn,
The sun will soon usurp the moon
To offer us its golden boon.
But there are times I wish the night
would linger still, with its moonlight.
Another night, I dreamed again
The gloaming of the Fairy Glen.
Oberon was the Fairy King,
Of him the legends softly sing
And naught of him was ever seen,

without Titania, his queen
and in the night, a fey mad face
dreamed now a mysterious place
From morning now, till dusk again,
They dance within the Fairy Glen.
Now shadowed wings and magic spells,
darken the hearts that here do dwell,
With staves and spears, Oberon's folk
weave magic with their mist and smoke,
with incense and cinnamon sweet,
they obfuscate their bright retreat,
with sorcery, they mask their den
in shadows now, the Fairy Glen.
I hear a trill, a voice sublime,
that stills the cold passage of time.
Magic fire and arcane frost,
Fae-born dreams, and immortals lost
Beneath the pall of navy night,
Now trapped in webs and fairy light
Take care, then, if you wander in
The gloaming of the Fairy Glen.
