Once we walked there Ere the first Sin was born Ere Eden's final dawn In gardens of worlds undreamt Once we danced there In scented, rapturous nights Beneath sultry moons In gardens of worlds undreamt But drawned by lethean floods The age of innocence had passed And left no one to remember The blissful, dream-woven past But still, I seek these gardens Veiled by the old seraphic ban And in dreams I walked there As once in times bygone Once we walked there Ere the first Sin was born Ere Eden's final dawn In gardens of worlds undreamt Once we danced there In scented, rapturous nights Beneath sultry moons In gardens of worlds undreamt
