Colors running from the night
Where the dawn submits a losing fight
A lullaby of love we sing
The cool breeze kisses your breasts, O flower of flesh!
Mixing with the mind of all that’s left
Beautiful blooms arouse the spring
Breathing life within our soul
The
(more) green creeping up the knoll
Like the yellow of each flowering maiden dress’d
And when for evening e’er bound
And your lips, my ear have found
Your words, in my heart ne’er so well express’d
The rays of sun reflect in the stream
Sings every golden beam
‘neath the billows of captivating skies
The sun descends to the west
As the birds returning to their nests
And we offer nothing but a sigh
(less)
