Another Stolen Child

[jarandhel]

With profound apologies to WB Yeats and the hope that he will understand and approve of this small filking of a fragment of one of his works.

"Come with me, Fairy Child.
To the World, Wide and Wild
With a Human, hand in hand.
For there is far more Magic
than you seem to Understand."

I'm sure Yeats would be honoured that his words are still cherished.

Awesome.

Yeah, I think he'd like it.

This is beautiful. Made chills go down my spine. Thank you. I also have to wonder if you've heard the the Waterboys version of the original, set to music?

Actually I haven't, but I have heard a musical version of the original poem done by another artist by the name of Heather Alexander. It's quite beautiful.
