In the Firelight + 

Come and dream of kings and kingdoms, + 

Cooking chestnuts on the bars⁠— + 

Round us the white roads are endless, + 

Mournful under mournful stars. + 

Whisper lest we too may sadden, + 

Round us herds of shadows steal⁠— + 

Care not if beyond the shadows + 

Flieth Fortune’s furious wheel. + 

Kingdoms rising, kingdoms falling, + 

Bowing nations, plumèd wars⁠— + 

Weigh them in an hour of dreaming, + 

Cooking chestnuts on the bars. + 
