The poet trembles at his own long gaze | B |
That meets him through the changing nights and days | B |
From out great Nature all her waters quiver | A |
With his fair image facing him for ever | A |
The music that he listens to betrays | B |
His own heart to his ears by trackless ways | B |

His dreams are far among the silent hills | C |
His vague voice calls him from the darkened plain | D |
With winds at night strange recognition thrills | C |
His lonely heart with piercing love and pain | D |
He knows his sweet mirth in the mountain rills | C |
His weary tears that touch him with the rain | D |
