Little Princess Mee lyrics

Little princess Mee

Lovely was she

As in elven-song is told:

She had pearls in her hair

All threaded fair

Of glossamer shot with gold

Was her kerchief made,

And a silver braid

Of stars about her throat.

Of moth-web light

All moonlit-white

She wore a woven coat,

And round her kirtle

Was bound a girdle

Sewn with diamond dew.

She walked by day

Under mantle grey

And hood of clouded blue;

But she went by night

All glittering bright

under the starlit sky,

And her slippers frail

Of fishes’ mail

Flashed as she went by

To her dancing-pool,

and on mirror cool

Of windless water played.

As a mist of light

In whirling flight

A glint like glass she made

Wherever her feet

of sliver fleet

Flicked the dancing-floor

She looked on high

To the roofless sky,

And she looked to the shadowy shore;

Then round she went,

And her eyes she bent

And saw beneath her go

A Princess Shee

As fair as Mee:

They were dancing toe to toe

Shee was as light

As Mee, and was as bright;

But Shee was, strange to tell,

Hanging down

With starry crown

Into a bottomless well!

Her gleaming eyes

In great surprise

Looked up to the eye of Mee:

A marvellous thing

Head-down to swing

Above a starry sea!

Only their feet

Could ever meet;

For where the ways might lie

To find land

Where they do not stand

But hung down in sky

No one could tell

Nor learn in spell

In all the elven-lore

So still on her own

An elf alone

Dancing as before

With pearls in hair

And Kittle fair

And slippers frail

Of fishes’ mail went Mee:

Of fishes’ mail

And slippers frail

And Kittle fair

With pearls in hair went Shee!
