*** Remake of the poem ”A Dream” by William Blake (1789) *** [Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] Once a dream did weave a shade O’er my angel-guarded bed And an emmet lost her way On the grass where I was laid [Verse 2] Troubled, weary, all alone Wandering far from her home Through the tangled leaves she cried “Do my children weep and sigh?” [Chorus] Little wanderer, don’t be afraid There’s a light to guide your way Hear the beetle’s midnight drum Follow now, your path will come [Instrumental interlude] [Verse 3] I, with pity, dropped a tear And a glow-worm did appear “Why so sad, O wailing wight? I am keeper of the night.” [Chorus] Little wanderer, don’t be afraid There’s a light to guide your way Hear the beetle’s midnight drum Follow now, your path will come [Bridge – Instrumental] [Verse 4] “I am here to light the ground While the beetle makes his round Listen close and you shall know Where the dreaming spirits go.” [Final Chorus] Little wanderer, don’t be afraid There’s a light to guide your way Let your dream return to you Night will end and stars shine through [Instrumental outro]
