Sonatas VII-15 (Grandioso con Molt'Espressione) The Faerie Dance Sonata

I stayed the night to watch the dance
The moonlight shadows did entrance.
I saw the wonders of the dark of night;
The moon brought indescribable delights.
Alas! Now too dim for shutters to capture, whether fast or slow,
I knew at once - 'twould be disaster.
I'd have to let it go.
So I stayed to watch with human eyes -
The Faerie Ball - I memorized.
At morning light they led me here,
To a faerie bower near a pool so clear.
Beside a trail on which I travelled to home,
Seekers may see faerie shadows upon the stones.
Bidding me, “Farewell till you come again!”
For faeries welcome all visitors who can see them.
I fear some may not believe what I say is true
But those who see with seeker’s eyes
Will see the things I do.
