Send me a dream

Send me a dream from the Dream Tree,

And then perhaps I may know

How the leaves of pale green,

Get their delicate sheen,

And the fragrant pink blossoms grow.

Send me a dream from the Dream Sea,

And then perhaps I may hear

Some sweet song in the shells

Of the mermaid who tells

Her secret in tones silver clear.

Send me a dream from the Dream Cloud,

And then perhaps I may feel

Just a tear from the sky

As it passes me by,

Its grief in the earth to conceal.

Send me a dream from the Dream Star,

And then perhaps I may see

In the tremulous glow,

Both above and below,

The light that is shining for me.
