Doth the moon spin silver threads of light,
   to waken dreams of youth in sleeping night,
or quicken love in hearts that tread
   'neath willow trees whose leaves are shed?
In autumn darkness light will fall
   through opened window,'gainst the wall
And hush...the dew is gathered near
   as though the evening sheds a tear
for soon the silver turns to gold
   the dawn doth come,the sun is bold
The spinning moon and dreaming heart
   in mourning with the night they part
and waken to another day
   in which the shadows stretch and play
They reach,then meeting with all others
   Sun and Moon are distant brothers
One arising,one receding,
   but these words no longer need repeating,
for when the night begins again,
   the day,these words will have to end
