Beautiful Dreamer
by Stephen Foster

Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd a way!

Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
List while I woo thee with soft melody;
Gone are the cares of life's busy throng, --
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!

Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea
Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie;
Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.

Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart,
E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea;
Then will all clouds of sorrow depart, --
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!

In the Land of Glenn Gaul Way

When the knights and ladies did play
in the Glenn, by the mossy brook by day
and danced from dusk 'til twilight of day.

The Legend holds the secrets rare
of these two, the Enchanted Pair
and of the lives they lived out there
in the Glenn of Gaul Way.

By night they did impart to another world apart
from Glenn Gaul Way they strayed to the land
of enchanted fey.

In dusk of light and mist of brook
these two took another form of look
with wings of gossamer and gold
and flew out of the old Glenn so bold.

They carried with them on their wings
the Star Dust of the heavens old
and scattered it far and wide,
Star Babies in the sky they made.

As dawn approached the tiny two
and laid their tiny wings with dew
downward downward flew the two
back to the Glenn to become human again.
