The fairy from the world of sleep came
and told me to keep sleeping,
just as animals, birds, bees and fish do.

She said that just as flowers have slept
with honey hidden within them,
so should I sleep with my eyes closed,
covering within me the nectar of life.

I told her that I would not sleep,
and that I would pass the night awake,
that I would keep awake lest some honey should get lost.

I then asked her if she didn't know that?
And I told her that I would pour out this honey,
and remove her anger.
