When twilight greets the end of day
The fairy folk come out to play
Awaking from their forest sleep
Arising from the shadows deep

They very soon will all take flight
To dance upon the starlit night
They play a soft and mystic tune
While frolicking beneath the moon

The nighttime air is filled with mirth
As magic drifts across the earth
They lightly float upon the breeze
Sparkling there among the trees

They dart among the branches high
Chasing moonbeams ‘cross the sky
They feast upon a stardust stew
And drink the early morning dew

Then as the sun begins to rise
They stretch their arms and rub their eyes
Returning to their forest beds
To rest their tiny weary heads

They’ll dream throughout the day so long
Of nighttime filled with fairy song
Then they will come again to play
When twilight greets the end of day
