Alas, a torment fell,
Alas, a wonder came to dwell.
A torment fell, alas, a wonder's plight,
What have I done in darkest night?

A silver ring, I left behind, by sleep undone,
By sleep's deep hold, my love's heart I have spun.
A silver ring, I left behind, by slumber's sway,
My love, he sought a comb, come what may.

He sought a comb, his morning grace,
And I, a stick, I placed in its place.
A silver ring, I left behind, in sleep's embrace.

My love, he sought a mirror's gleam,
A mirror's face, a waking dream.
And I, a fan, in shadows deep,
A silver ring, I left behind, in slumber's keep.

My love, he sought his morning shirt,
His heart's desire, to ease his hurt.
And I, a skirt, in weary plight,
A silver ring, I left behind in night.

My love, he sought my very soul,
My heart's embrace, to make him whole.
And I, a doll, in sleep's soft hand,
A silver ring, I left behind, in dreamland.

My love, he yearned for a son's tender face,
A legacy to fill his space.
And I, a toy, in slumber's hold,
A silver ring, I left behind, a story told.

My love, he brought a rival near,
A shadowed doubt, a rising fear.
And I, a fight, with slumber's might,
A silver ring, I left behind, in the fading light.
