I lay with Ariel under my pillow
as I have missed the boat on many occasions
to the bliss of that sweetest repose I endeavour
to dream back in the kingdom I did come from

I lay with Ariel under my pillow
for it is like a prayer book to on liken to me
I break my body to go the way
of my dark and honoured classic poets

I lay with Ariel under my pillow
worry not that I have lost the plot
for all I have created is to my death
as all I have given to you will be my lot

This is why I lay with Ariel under my pillow
if you asked for the enlightenment in my heart
I would tell you to hush your mouth
for me and Ariel do never part
