OldfieldSunlight falling bright over the village garden wallsMoonlight showers gold where living water fallsPeople walk in splendour under trees hung in starlightCandlelight lawns sweep down to the river that ripples on pebbles of turquoiseFountains of golden light burst in quavers that float among the starsThe tables are laid with fruits of the wine and cedar from SamarkandThe golden gates are open wide for the people all over the landA thousand dancing chandeliers shine in my lady's chamberMy lord comes swaying through the hall with a goblet of shining amberThen nectar and brandy, wine and mead come flowing from shimmering springsThey all menuet to a string quartet and the Marquis's daughter shall singGentle maidens walking in the gardenWhile they'r courted by the knights from the palace of loveThey are all dressed in white with flowers of palest colourThey are all singing songs to the yellow moon aboveCome to the Ball my love, sip sweet ambrosiaTip in the forest Titania my loveWould you like brandy wine? Shall we go now and dine?We'll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has setWe shall dance through the midsummer nightCome my pretty Oberon trip, trip, tripCome and sing a summer song trip, tripI know a bank where cowslips tripWhereon the wild thyme sits trip, tripDance in the midsummer nightCome my pretty puck and squeeze this magic flowerIn the eyes of lovers in the midnight hourThis a flower of wonder is a magic seedWhen they shall awake lay heaven at their feetWould you like brandy wine?Shall we go now and dine?We'll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has setWe shall dance through the midsummer night
