We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow,
We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow,
And challenged the winds' wild breath, you know.
We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow.
We, too, heed not the end, my friends,
We, too, heed not the end, my friends,
For life itself,
we hold it in our palms,
life itself,
we hold it in our palms.
And challenged the winds' wild breath, you know.
We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow.
Perhaps one thirstier than us will come,
Perhaps one thirstier than us will come,
With this thought we save,
a small bit we've kept.
With this thought we save,
a small bit we've kept.
And challenged the winds' wild breath, you know.
We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow.
You've come not, perhaps, to slay us, yet,
You've come not, perhaps, to slay us, yet,
But what is this,
hidden in your sleeves?
But what is this,
hidden in your sleeves?
And challenged the winds' wild breath, you know.
We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow,
We've arrayed an evening,
adorned with lamps aglow.
