    Soon as the evening shades prevail,
    The moon takes up the wondrous tale,
    And nightly to the listening earth
    Repeats the story of her birth.

On the road, the lonely road,
Under the cold, white moon;
Under the rugged trees he strode,
Whistled and shifted his heavy load--
Whistled a foolish tune.

And the little fifer hangs his head,
When all is mute the Moorish flute,
And nodding guards watch wearily,
On, then let me,
From prison free,

The one that shows most fickle and strange,
And takes the most eccentric range,
Is the moon--so called--of honey!

The moving moon went up to the sky,
And nowhere did abide;
Softly she was going up,
And a star or two beside.
