Down here I hardly see the world through water lilies rounded and edged distorted silhouettes Under the waters my graceful being suspended by a rope of weeds bound so tightly to my waist
It's so silent down here I can only hear the hissing murmur of the distant river It's so freezing so cold come to me my dear, my dear... Won't you dare to break the glassy surface of this shady pond? there's no reason to feel fear if your heart is wise and pure Are you afraid it is not?
Where do you hide? Where do you go? Why do you run away?
It seems it was ages ago I last saw the shining sky how many souls I may devour to become a dragonfly? And fly high Down here I hardly see the world through water lilies
