Lyrics:

Come, oh, songs! come, oh, dreams!
Soft the gates of day close
Sleep, my birds, sleep, streams!
Sleep, my wild rose!

Pool and bud, hill and deep
You who wore my robes, sleep!
Droop, East! die, West!
Let my land rest

Woods, I woke your boughs!
Hills, I woke your elf-throngs!
Land, All thy hopes and woes
Rang from me in songs!

Come, oh, songs! come, oh,dreams!
In our house is deep rest
Through the pines gleams, gleams
Bright the gold West

There the flutes shall cry
There the viols weep
Laugh, my dreams, and sigh!
Sing, and vigil keep
Awake, wild rose
