Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CCCC DCDC BEBE FGFH IJIJ KCKC| Oh Silver Stars that shine on what I love | A |
| Touch the soft hair and sparkle in the eyes | B |
| Send from your calm serenity above | A |
| Sleep to whom sleepless here despairing lies | B |
| - | |
| Broken forlorn upon the Desert sand | C |
| That sucks these tears and utterly abased | C |
| Looking across the lonely level land | C |
| With thoughts more desolate than any waste | C |
| - | |
| Planets that shine on what I so adore | D |
| Now thrown the hour is late in careless rest | C |
| Protect that sleep which I may watch no more | D |
| I the cast out dismissed and dispossessed | C |

| Far in the hillside camp in slumber lies | B |
| What my worn eyes worship but never see | E |
| Happier Stars your myriad silver eyes | B |
| Feast on the quiet face denied to me | E |
| - | |
| Loved with a love beyond all words or sense | F |
| Lost with a grief beyond the saltest tear | G |
| So lovely so removed remote and hence | F |
| So doubly and so desperately dear | H |
| - | |
| Stars from your skies so purple and so calm | I |
| That through the centuries your secrets keep | J |
| Send to this worn out brain some Occult Balm | I |
| Send me for many nights so sleepless sleep | J |
| - | |
| And ere the sunshine of the Desert jars | K |
| My sense with sorrow and another day | C |
| Through your soft Magic oh my Silver Stars | K |
| Turn sleep to Death in some mysterious way | C |
