Full Lyrics
Gentle winds around her hover,
Seek the bower where she sleeps,
Whisper, zephyrs, how I love her,
Tho’ my lip still silent keeps;
Tell her that my peace is flown,
Say my heart is all her own;
Mingle, zephyrs, with her sigh,
Bid her let me hope or die.
Gentle moon that shin’st above her,
In yon dark blue vault afar,
Whisper, softly, how I love her,
Say she is my guiding star;
Let thy pure and holy beams
Fall upon her while she dreams,
Murmur, moonbeams, how I sigh,—
But for her I live— or die!
