Of the leaf where you slumbered all day;

Fly away, pretty moth, to the shade
Of the leaf where you slumbered all day;
Be content with the moon and the stars, pretty moth,
And make use of your wings while you may.

They at last found it dangerous play;
Many things in this world that look bright, pretty moth,
Only dazzle to lead us astray.
