Song, O Moonlight Deep And Tender

Title:     Song, O Moonlight Deep And Tender
Author: James Russell Lowell [More Titles by Lowell]

O moonlight deep and tender,
A year and more agone,
Your mist of golden splendor
Round my betrothal shone!

O elm-leaves dark and dewy,
The very same ye seem,
The low wind trembles through ye,
Ye murmur in my dream!

O river, dim with distance,
Flow thus forever by,
A part of my existence
Within your heart doth lie!

O stars, ye saw our meeting,
Two beings and one soul,
Two hearts so madly beating
To mingle and be whole!

O happy night, deliver
Her kisses back to me,
Or keep them all, and give her
A blisslul dream of me!

[The end]
James Russell Lowell's poem: Song, O Moonlight Deep And Tender
