O sacred souls that grandly singA
The secret songs of human heartsB
Where your wild music madly startsB
The sorrows into raptures springA
Within the warbles of your chimesC
Man reads the longings of his daysD
And finds amid your lofty laysD
Glad music for his gloomy timesC
-
How sweet the mute melodious criesE
Which only lives like yours may hearF
Where pleasures thrill the singer's earF
With laughing strains of lullabiesE
You know soft voices rich with loveG
That mingle in the fields and woodsH
To bless the silent solitudesH
With carols coming from aboveG
-
Your golden harps resound alwayI
Where valley bound with blossom liesH
And rugged mountains highest riseH
And silver fountains softly playJ
While in the gladness of your songsH
The fainting bosoms hope againK
And toil among their fellow menK
Forgetful of their ancient wrongsH
-
You sport with singing meadows brightL
With fragrant winds and scented galesH
Where shine and shadow kiss the valesH
In fairy fondness of delightL
For where the meads and forests blendM
The sweetest songs of life are foundN
And where the lonely hills aboundN
The soul of music meets a friendM
-
Glad hearts that warble songs divineO
Sweet singers of a mourning raceH
The ages long your brows shall graceH
With crowns where bays and laurels twineO
For man the grandest garland bringsH
To bless the tender lives that tellP
And with their mystic music swellP
The lays that Nature fondly singsH
