On the heights of Glantaun there's no voice that is human, But sometimes, at night-fall, the lone passer-by Will hear on the west wind the song of a woman, That calls him to follow the sound of her sigh. | |
| Murphy. | |
|
It is Cleena who calls him, 'tis Cleena the Fairy, (Or so tells the old country legend, not I), And if he be foolish, or bold, or unwary, He'll follow the sound of her musical sigh! | |
| Molly. | |
|
And there in her Cavern of Dreams he'll lie dreaming, A laugh on his lip while his life rushes by - | |
| Murphy. | |
|
For the world where she dwells is the Fair World of Seeming, The world that is found at the end of a sigh! | |
| Terence. | |
|
Yes, the world where she dwells is the Fair World of Seeming, The world that is found at the end of a sigh, Of a sigh! | |
| All. | |
|
The world where she dwells is the Fair World of Seeming, The world that is found at the end of a sigh! The world that is found at the end of a sigh, a sigh! The world that is found at the end of a sigh, a sigh, The world that is found at the end of a sigh! |
|
Molly takes Murphy's hand and leads him; exeunt.
