The girl goes dancing there On the leaf-sown, new-mown, smooth Grass plot of the garden Escaped from her bitter youth Escaped out of her crowd Or out of her black cloud Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer If strange men come from the house To lead her away, please, do not say She's crazy Lead them gently astray Let her finish her dance Finish her dance Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer She sings as the moon sings I am I, I am I The greater grows my light The further shall I fly I hear the wind a-blow I hear the grass a-grow And all that I know I know, I know The girl goes dancing there On the leaf-sown, new-mown, smooth grass of the garden Let her finish the dance Let her finish the dance Finish the dance Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer
