Could I lay me down,
Could I lay me down, in flowers-
On the breast of mother earth,
Nor decrying all the hours
I thought I loved the most?
Could I lay me down,
Could I lay me down, in streams-
Of silver, from the foaming gorge,
Giving up the many dreams
I had, when life was short?
Could I lay me down,
Could I lay me down, in stars
In the loom of cosmic diamonds-
Unafraid of going far
Into the minds true meaning?
