| OH queen of dreams 'tis now the hour | B |
| Thy fav'rite hour of silence and of sleep | C |
| Come bring thy wand whose magic pow'r | D |
| Can wake the troubled spirits of the deep | C |
| - | |
| And while around on ev'ry eye | E |
| The 'honey dews of slumber' lie | E |
| Oh guide me to the wild retreat | F |
| Where fays in nightly revel meet | F |
| And gaily sport in mystic ring | G |
| By lonely glen or haunted spring | G |
| - | |
| Now ev'ry sound has died away | H |
| The winds and waves are lull'd to rest | I |
| The sighing breeze forgets to play | H |
| And moon beams tremble o'er the ocean's breast | I |
| - | |
| Come Fancy come creative pow'r | D |
| That lov'st the tranquil reign of night | J |
| Perhaps in such a silent hour | B |
| Thy visions charm'd the bard of Avon's sight | J |
| Oh poet blest thy guiding hand | K |
| Led him thro' scenes of fairy land | K |
| To him thy favor'd child alone | L |
| Thy bright Elysian worlds were shown | L |
| - | |
| Come Fancy come with lov'd control | M |
| Bewitch thy votary's pensive soul | M |
| Come sportive charmer lovely maid | N |
| In rainbow colored vest array'd | N |
| Invoke thy visionary train | O |
| The subjects of thy gentle reign | O |
| - | |
| If e'er ethereal spirits meet | F |
| On earth to pour their dirges sweet | F |
| Now might they hover on the moon beam pale | P |
| And breathe celestial music on the gale | P |
| - | |
| And hark from yonder distant dell | Q |
| I hear angelic numbers swell | Q |
| Ah sure some airy sylph is nigh | E |
| To wake such heav'nly melody | R |
| Now soft the dulcet notes decay | H |
| Float on the breeze and melt away | H |
| Again they fall again they rise | S |
| Ah now the soft enchantment dies | S |
| The charm is o'er the spell is past | T |
| The witching spell too sweet to last | T |
| - | |
| Hail Fancy hail around thy hallow'd shrine | U |
| What sylphid bands what radiant forms appear | V |
| Ah bless thy votary with thy dreams divine | U |
| Ah wave thy wand and call thy visions dear | V |
| - | |
| Bear me oh bear me to thy realms unknown | L |
| Enchantress waft me in thy car sublime | W |
| To bend entranc'd before thy shadowy throne | L |
| To view the wonders of thy fairy clime | W |
