Do you seek the road to Fairyland I'll tell; it's easy, quite. Wait till a yellow moon gets up O'er purple seas by night, And gilds a shining pathway That is sparkling diamond bright Then, if no evil power be nigh To thwart you, out of spite, And if you know the very words To cast a spell of might, You get upon a thistledown, And, if the breeze is right, You sail away to Fairyland Along this track of light.
