His boots are as green as a beetle’s back,

His beard has a fringe of silver bells

And scarlet berries and small white shells,

And as through the night the Dream Coach gleams,

The song he sings like a banner streams:

“Nothing is real in all the world,

Nothing is real but dreams.”

Through sound of rain the Dream Coach gallops fast.

All those that we have loved are riding there:

I hear their laughter on the misty air.
