After Robert Schumann	A

Prelude	B
	-
	-
Blue storm clouds in hot heavens of mid July	C
Hung heavy brooding over land and sea	D
Our hearts a tremble throbbed in harmony	D
With the wild restless tone of air and sky	C
Shall we not call him Prospero who held	E
In his enchanted hands the fateful key	D
Of that tempestuous hour's mystery	D
And with him to wander by a sun bright shore	F
To hear fine fairy voices and to fly	C
With disembodied Ariel once more	F
Above earth's wrack and ruin Far and nigh	C
The laughter of the thunder echoed loud	G
And harmless lightnings leapt from cloud to cloud	G

I	C

	-
Floating upon a swelling wave of sound	H
We seemed to overlook an endless sea	D
Poised 'twixt clear heavens and glittering surf were we	D
We drank the air in flight we knew no bound	H
To the audacious ventures of desire	I
Nigh us the sun was dropping drowned in gold	J
Deep deep below the burning billows rolled	J
And all the sea sang like a smitten lyre	K
Oh the wild voices of those chanting waves	L
The human faces glimpsed beneath the tide	M
Familiar eyes gazed from profound sea caves	L
And we exalted were as we had died	M
We knew the sea was Life the harmonious cry	C
The blended discords of humanity	D

II	C

	-
Look deeper yet mark 'midst the wave blurred mass	N
In lines distinct in colors clear defined	O
The typic groups and figures of mankind	O
Behold within the cool and liquid glass	N
Bright child folk sporting with smooth yellow shells	P
Astride of dolphins leaping up to kiss	Q
Fair mother faces From the vast abyss	Q
How joyously their thought free laughter wells	P
Lulled by the overwhelming water's sound	H
And some make mouths at dragons undismayed	H
Oh dauntless innocence The gulfs profound	H
Reecho strangely with their ringing glee	D
And with wise mermaids' plaintive melody	D

What do the sea nymphs in that coral cave	R
With wondering eyes their supple forms they bend	H
O'er something rarely beautiful They lend	H
Their lithe white arms and through the golden wave	R
They lift it tenderly Oh blinding sight	H
A naked radiant goddess tranced in sleep	S
Full limbed voluptuous 'neath the mantling sweep	S
Of auburn locks that kiss her ankles white	H
Upward they bear her chanting low and sweet	H
The clinging waters part before their way	T
Jewels of flame are dancing 'neath their feet	H
Up in the sunshine in soft foam they lay	T
Their precious burden and return forlorn	U
Oh bliss oh anguish Mortals LOVE is born	U

IV	R

	-
Hark from unfathomable deeps a dirge	V
Swells sobbing through the melancholy air	W
Where Love has entered Death is also there	W
The wail outrings the chafed tumultuous surge	V
Ocean and earth the illimitable skies	X
Prolong one note a mourning for the dead	H
The cry of souls not to be comforted	H
What piercing music Funeral visions rise	X
And send the hot tears raining down our cheek	Y
We see the silent grave upon the hill	Z
With its lone lilac bush O heart be still	Z
She will not rise she will not stir nor speak	Y
Surely the unreturning dead are blest	H
Ring on sweet dirge and knell us to our rest	H

Upon the silver beach the undines dance	A2
With interlinking arms and flying hair	W
Like polished marble gleam their limbs left bare	W
Upon their virgin rites pale moonbeams glance	A2
Softer the music for their foam bright feet	H
Print not the moist floor where they trip their round	H
Affrighted they will scatter at a sound	H
Leap in their cool sea chambers nimbly fleet	H
And we shall doubt that we have ever seen	B2
While our sane eyes behold stray wreaths of mist	H
Shot with faint colors by the moon rays kissed	H
Floating snow soft snow white where these had been	C2
Already look the wave washed sands are bare	W
And mocking laughter ripples through the air	W

Epilogue	D2
	-
	-
Forth in the sunlit rain bathed air we stepped	H
Sweet with the dripping grass and flowering vine	E2
And saw through irised clouds the pale sun shine	E2
Back o'er the hills the rain mist slowly crept	H
Like a transparent curtain's slivery sheen	B2
And fronting us the painted bow was arched	H
Whereunder the majestic cloud shapes marched	H
In the wet yellow light the dazzling green	B2
Of lawn and bush and tree seemed stained with blue	F2
Our hearts o'erflowed with peace With smiles we spake	G2
Of partings in the past of courage new	F2
Of high achievement of the dreams that make	G2
A wonder and a glory of our days	H2
And all life's music but a hymn of praise	H2
