We shall play, we shall play hide-and-seek,
Yes, we shall play, yes, we shall play,
Hide-and-seek we shall play,
We shall play hide-and-seek,
With playful stars, mingling close,
Yes, we shall play, yes, we shall play,
Hide-and-seek we shall play,
We shall play hide-and-seek.
You, in the moon's embrace, shall hide,
I, in their memory, shall retreat,
You, in the moon's embrace, shall hide,
I, in their memory, shall retreat,
Unfound, though searched for with all might,
The stars' company, weary,
The stars' company, weary,
Yes, we shall play, yes, we shall play,
Hide-and-seek we shall play,
We shall play hide-and-seek.
With playful stars, mingling close,
Yes, we shall play, yes, we shall play,
Hide-and-seek we shall play,
We shall play hide-and-seek.
Upon that moon, why do you preen?
Upon that moon, why do you preen?
That moon which cannot sweet words speak,
That moon which cannot sweet words speak,
Shatter yourselves, and come to me,
Shatter yourselves, and come to me,
Hearken now to their speech,
Yes, hearken now to their speech.
Yes, we shall play, yes, we shall play,
Hide-and-seek we shall play,
We shall play hide-and-seek,
With playful stars, mingling close,
Yes, we shall play, yes, we shall play,
Hide-and-seek we shall play,
We shall play hide-and-seek.
