The Stolen Child by WB Yeats
Where Dips the Rocky Highland
There Lies A Leafy Island
Full Of Berries
WhereThe
Wave of moonlight
Glosses
Where the wandering water gushes
From the hills above Glen-Car
The Dim Gray Sands With Light
In pools among the rushes
That scarce could bathe a star
And of reddest stolen cherries
Far off by furthest Rosses
We seek for slumbering trout
And whispering in their ears
We foot it all the night
Give them unquiet dreams
Leaning softly out
Where Flapping Herons Wake
Come Away O Human Child
Weaving olden dances
From ferns that drop their tears
Over the young streams
Mingling
Hands andMingling
Glances
Come away O human child
To the waters and the wild
To The Waters And The Wild
Till The Moon Has Taken Flight
With a faery hand in hand
For the world's
To and fro we leap
more full of weeping
than you can understand
Of Sleuth Wood In The Lake
The Drowsy Water Rats
With A Faery Hand In Hand
And Chase The Frothy Bubbles
Away with us he's going
The solemn-eyed
While theWorld isFull ofTroubles
He'll hear no more the lowing
Of the calves
For The World's
And anxious in its sleep
on the warm Hillside
Or the kettle on the hob
Come Away O Human Child
Sing peace into his breast
Or see the brown mice bob
There We've Hid Our Faery Vats
More Full Of Weeping
To the waters and the wild
Round and round
the oatmeal chest
With a faery hand in hand
For he comes the human child
To the waters and the wild
Than You Can Understand
For The World's More Full Of
With a faery hand in hand
For the world's
Weeping Than You Can Understand
more full of weeping
Than He Can Understand
