Francesco Paolo Tosti — Dreams of the Summer Night

Stars of the summer night! Far in yon azure deeps Hide, hide your golden light! She sleeps, my lady sleeps! Moon of the summer night! Far down yon western steeps Sink, sink in silver light! She sleeps, my lady sleeps! Wind of the summer night! Where yonder woodbine creeps Fold, fold thy pinions light! She sleeps, my lady sleeps! Dreams of the summer night! Tell her, her lover keeps watch! While in slumbers light She sleeps, my lady sleeps!
