	Story Behind the Song Part of the song cycle "A Magic Casement" for two voices and two pianos. Various nineteenth-century poems assembled to create a 'song tableau', a "journey" song cycle. Lyrics Come away, O human child! To the waters and the wild With a faery, hand in hand, For the world's more full of weeping Than you can understand. -W B Yeats Come away from the weary old world of tears, From the slow weary drips of the slow weary years, To peace and deep rests where the white dews are falling, And the blithe bugle-laughters through Dreamland are calling. -Fiona Macleod
