Hope and fear Left her colorless face without mirth Sweet Daphne, the priestess of Old Mother Earth Saw a stranger coming near Full of pride Still mighty Apollo desired The God of all Arts gently playing his lyre Needs a nymph to guard his night Safe and sound Daphne lived in the mountains, protecting the ground A wild virgin girl In a heavenly world Breaking Apollo's heart Whatever happens, her goddess will ward Chasing his love through the mountains and hills Slave of a world full of passionate thrills Dreaming of being embraced by her arms Could not resist all her magical charms But meaning no harm Please don't forsake me in hours of need Fallen a victim to Apollo's greed Goddess of Earth, she cried so desperately If I can't escape won't you please let me be A wild laurel tree Sacred tree Oh to worship, to cherish and always be near thee Your leaves will serve To those with the urge To give beauty to words
