I was drifting through the garden; pale white lilies passed my way Small grey women standing petrifyed on the holy ground Their faces left me with a smile The lilies blind me in the fading light of dusk And the statues still followed on my way Until the road diverged into two I closed my eyes and took the one less traveled by It went on downwards while the night began to reign And as I swayed into the darkness It grew colder through an atmosphere of tears Then a step too far - I tumbled in the depths I felt some clods thrown on my back Coloured flowers drizzled side by side As I was falling into empty space I nearly heard the women whisper "Just stay true to yourself" But I couldn't realize a word It seemed to me as if the journey`s taking ages The awful blackness afflicted all my petty wishes At last the glittering swarm of white doves did appear With a snow white net weaved of spinning nettles in their bills Known to me as the defence of dreams I plunged into the web as hard as stone So it cought me grievously It cought me grievously
