Fairy Land   - Faery Song -  
<< Back



WE the fairies blithe and antic
Of dimensions not gigantic,
Though the moonshine mostly keep us,
Oft in orchards frisk and peep us.


Stolen sweets are always sweeter; Stolen kisses much completer;
Stolen looks are nice in chapels;
Stolen, stolen be your apples.


When to bed the world are bobbing,
Then's the time for orchard robbing;
Yet the fruit were scarce worth peeling
Were it not for the stealing, stealing.



By Leigh Hunt (1784-1859)
