The Firefly
Is she a star of heaven?
From her moonlit dwelling fallen,
Behold her!! The indomitable spark,
Defier of the darkness so stark.
Tell me the source of her light divine,
Which enslaves my mind like the strongest wine,
The flowers have retreated afar,
Yet she glides on unhindered and flickering,
As if resigned to her love's beckoning,
Oh! Lend me your light,
I am lost in the windy night,
Oh! Guide me on,
Obscure is my vision and unknown my destination.
