i have wrapped my dreams in a silken cloth,
and laid them away in a box of gold;
where long will cling the lips of the moth,
i have wrapped my dreams in a silken cloth;
i hide no hate; i am not even wroth
who found earth's breath so keen and cold;
i have wrapped my dreams in a silken cloth,
and laid them away in a box of gold.
