| At that hour when all things have repose | B |

| Of harps playing unto Love to unclose | C |
| The pale gates of sunrise | C |
| - | |
| When all things repose do you alone | D |
| Awake to hear the sweet harps play | E |
| To Love before him on his way | E |
| And the night wind answering in antiphon | F |
| Till night is overgone | F |

| Play on invisible harps unto Love | G |
| Whose way in heaven is aglow | H |
| At that hour when soft lights come and go | H |
| Soft sweet music in the air above | G |
| And in the earth below | H |
