To fling my arms wide / In some place of the sun, / To whirl and to dance / Till the white day is done.
Then rest at cool evening / Beneath a tall tree / While night comes on gently, / Dark like me --
That is my dream!
To fling my arms wide / In the face of the sun, / Dance! whirl! whirl!
Till the quick day is done.
Rest at pale evening.
A tall, slim tree.
Night coming tenderly / Black like me.
