3-24 Dionysus and The Boys

should we laugh and drink the wine?
should we laugh and drink the wine?
should we laugh, yes, and drink the wine?
Oh quiet, Dionysus, careful, gentle, quiet Dionysus,
should we laugh and drink the wine?

One for the faerie, with the wings made of trees,
One for the faerie, with the wings made of trees,
One for the snow faerie with the wings made of trees,
Oh quiet, Dionysus, careful, gentle, quiet Dionysus,
should he laugh and drink the wine,
as he walks beneath the trees?

One for the faerie, with no wings to be free,
One for the faerie, with no wings to be free,
One for the hanged faerie, with no wings to be free,
Oh quiet, Dionysus, careful, gentle, quiet Dionysus,
should he laugh and drink the wine,
as he runs to be free?

One for the faerie, with the wings made of honey,
One for the faerie, with the wings made of honey,
One for the bumblebee faerie, with the wings made of honey,
Oh quiet, Dionysus, careful, gentle, quiet Dionysus,
should he laugh and drink the wine,
as he gathers his kisses of honey,

should we laugh and drink the wine?
should we laugh and drink the wine?
should we laugh, yes, and drink the wine?
Oh quiet, Dionysus, careful, gentle, quiet Dionysus,
laugh and come sit, beneath the tree,
come drink and be free,
come share, in our kisses of honey,
Oh quiet, Dionysus, careful, gentle, quiet Dionysus,
we drink to you,
who turns the boys of winter,
into the faeries of spring.
