Full Lyrics
Hark! the pealing,
Softly stealing,
Evening bell,
Sweetly echoed
Down the dell.
Welcome, welcome
Is thy music,
Silvery bell,
Sweetly telling
Day’s farewell!
Day is sleeping,
Flowers are weeping,
Tears of dew;
Stars are peeping
Ever true.
Grove and mountain,
Field and fountain,
Faintly gleam,
In the ruddy
Sunset stream.
Happy hour,
May thy power,
Fill my breast
Each wild passion
Soothe to rest.
