When the moist and balmy gale 
Round the verdant meadow sights, 
Odours sweet in misty veil 
At the twilight-hour arise 
Murmurings soft of calm repose. 

Rock the heart to child-like rest, 
And the day’s bright portals close 
On the eyes with toil oppressed 
Night already reigns over all. 

Strangely star linked to star 
Planets, mighty sparkling small 
Glitter near and gleam afar 
Gleam above in clearer night. 

Glitter in the glassy sea 
Pledging pure and calm delight  [bad word] the moon in majesty 
Now each well known hour is over. 

 [bad word] the newborn eye of day 
Bales grow verdant, hillocks teem 
Shady nooks the bushes yield and with waving silvery gleam 
Wouldst thou wish for wish obtain. 

Cast the shell of sleep away 
Tarry not, but be thou bold 
When the many loiter still 
All with ease may be controlled.

Strangely star linked to star 
Planets, mighty sparkling small 
Glitter near and gleam afar 
Gleam above in clearer night. 

Glitter in the glassy sea 
Pledging pure and calm delight  [bad word] the moon in majesty 
Now each well known hour is over.
