[Girls:]
The sun is down and over the town,
Far above is the star that we love,
Star that brings the twilight hour
of serenade and song,
The hour for whose coming maidens ever long,
When the flicker of the fireflies' play
Shows the happy lover's way!
It is not dark and yet it is not the day,
The twilight soft and grey!
Sweet hour before the coming shadow covers
One golden feather of a cloud that hovers
To wave as a welcome to our lovers,
One gold feather of the wing of love!
