Lyrics
NAY, no longer I may hold you
In my spirit's soft caresses,
Nor like lotus-leaves enfold you
In the tangles of my tresses
Fairy fancies, fly away
Fairy fancies, fly away
To the white cloud-wildernesses
Fly away
Nay, no longer ye may linger
With your laughter-lighted faces
Now I am a thought-worn singer
In life's high and lonely places
Fairy fancies, fly away
Fairy fancies, fly away
To bright wind-inwoven spaces
Fly away
