Lyrics
I arise from dreams of thee
In the first sweet sleep of night
When the winds are breathing low
And the stars are shining bright
I arise from dreams of thee
And a spirit in my feet
Has led me who knows how
To thy chamber window sweet
The wandering airs they faint
On the dark the silent stream
And the fragrant odours fail
Like sweet thoughts in a dream
Oh love oh love like morning light
You rise and chase away the night
No star so bright no dream so free
As love that wakes inside of me
The nightingale's complaint
It dies upon her heart
As I must on thine
Oh beloved as thou art
Oh lift me from the grass
I die I faint I fail
Let thy love in kisses rain
On my lips and eyelids pale
My cheek is cold and white alas
My heart beats loud and fast
Oh press it close to thine again
Where it will break at last
Oh love oh love like morning light
You rise and chase away the night
No star so bright no dream so free
As love that wakes inside of me
