First Line: I hear them singing in the open spaces
Last Line: The worship of the moon.
Subject(s): Moon
I hear them singing in the open spaces
The old, old rites, the music of the moon;
The rougher and the sweeter voices blending
To lift the joyous tune.
I see them dancing in the open spaces
As moonlit nights grow long;
Clasped hands and circling steps and charmed faces,
And witchery of song.
A harmony of hearts to rule the singing
As loud and low they croon;
I see them dancing in the open spaces
The worship of the moon.
