[00:01.79] O thou pale orb that silent shines
[00:07.80]
[00:08.46] While care-untroubled mortals sleep
[00:13.53]
[00:14.49] Thou seest a wretch who inly pines
[00:19.59]
[00:20.29] And wanders here to wail and weep
[00:25.51]
[00:26.30] With woe I nightly vigils keep
[00:31.70]
[00:32.34] Beneath thy wan, unwarming beam
[00:37.55]
[00:38.30] And mourn, in lamentation deep
[00:43.61]
[00:44.31] How life and love are all a dream
[00:49.30]
[00:50.51] O thou bright queen, who o'er th'expanse
[00:55.50]
[00:56.15] Now highest reign'st, with boundless sway
[01:01.44]
[01:02.40] Oft has thy silent-marking glance
[01:07.61]
[01:08.30] Observ'd us, fondly-wand'ring, stray
[01:13.03]
[01:14.32] The time, unheeded, sped away
[01:19.27]
[01:20.22] While love's luxurious pulse beat high
[01:25.20]
[01:26.30] Beneath thy silver-gleaming ray
[01:31.30]
[01:32.20] To mark the mutual-kindling eye
[01:37.76]
[02:26.17] O thou pale orb that silent shines
[02:31.52]
[02:32.26] While care-untroubled mortals sleep
[02:37.57]
[02:38.21] Thou seest a wretch who inly pines
[02:43.50]
[02:44.24] And wanders here to wail and weep
[02:49.24]
[02:50.24] With woe I nightly vigils keep
[02:55.44]
[02:56.09] Beneath thy wan, unwarming beam
[03:00.92]
[03:02.27] And mourn, in lamentation deep
[03:07.63]
[03:08.33] How life and love are all a dream
[03:14.20]
