Fear no goblin mischief,
Heed no demon bark;
Wrap the night about you tight—
Do not fear the dark.
Tame the mares of chaos,
Brand them with your mark;
Leap astride their backs and ride—
Do not fear the dark.
Float in safety’s shadow,
Sheltering the spark;
Senses bloom within its womb—
Do not fear the dark.
Long before the founding
Darkness was the ark,
From its snout the stars spilled out—
Do not fear the dark.
