- | |
Offspring of night | B |
Let a more radiant beam | C |
Through the blue ether gleam | C |
- | |
Charming the sight | B |
Would the dark clouds on high | A |
- | |
Melt into air | D |
Stars glimmer tenderly | E |
- | |
Planets more fair | D |
- | |
Shed their soft light | B |
Spirits of heav'nly birth | F |
Fairer than sons of earth | F |
Quivering emotions true | G |
- | |
Hover above | H |
Yearning affections too | G |
- | |
In their train move | I |
See how the spirit band | J |
By the soft breezes fann'd | J |
Covers the smiling land | J |
Covers the leafy grove | K |
Where happy lovers rove | K |
Deep in a dream of love | H |
True love that never dies | L |
Bowers on bowers rise | L |
- | |
Soft tendrils twine | M |
While from the press escapes | N |
Born of the juicy grapes | N |

Foaming the wine | M |
And as the current flows | O |
O'er the bright stones it goes | O |
Leaving the hilly lands | P |
- | |
Far far behind | Q |
Into a sea expands | P |
- | |
Loving to wind | Q |
Round the green mountain's base | R |
And the glad winged race | R |
- | |
Rapture sip in | S |
As they the sunny light | B |
And the fair islands bright | B |
- | |
Hasten to win | S |
That on the billows play | T |
With sweet deceptive ray | T |
Where in glad choral song | U |
Shout the exulting throng | U |
Where on the verdant plain | V |
- | |
Dancers we see | E |
Spreading themselves amain | V |
- | |
Over the lea | E |
Some boldly climbing are | W |
- | |
O'er the steep brake | X |
Others are floating far | W |
- | |
O'er the smooth lake | X |
All for a purpose move | I |
- | |
All with life teem | C |
While the sweet stars above | H |
- | |
Blissfully gleam | C |
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
