The Star

A white star born in the evening glow
Looked to the round green world below
And saw a pool in a wooded place
That held like a jewel her mirrored face

She said to the pool: "Oh, wondrous deep
I love you, I give you my light to keep
Oh, more profound than the moving sea
That never has shown myself to me!
Oh, fathomless as the sky is far
Hold forever your tremulous star!"

(Hold forever your tremulous star)
(Hold forever your tremulous star)

But out of the woods as night grew cool
A brown pig came to the little pool
It grunted and splashed and waded in
And the deepest place but reached its chin
The water gurgled with tender glee
And the mud churned up in it turbidly

(Hold forever your tremulous star)

The star grew pale and hid her face
In a bit of floating cloud like lace
