As the Moon’s Soft Splendor Lyrics by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor

6 Songs, Op. 37

0

As the moon's soft splendor
\nO'er the faint, cold starlight of heaven
\nIs thrown
\nSo thy voice most tender
\nTo the strings without soul has given
\nIts own
\n
\nThe stars will awaken
\nThough the moon sleep a full hour later
\nTonight:
\nNo leaf will be shaken
\nWhilst the dews of thy melody scatter
\nDelight
\n
\nThough the sound overpowers
\nSing again, with thy sweet voice revealing
\nA tone
\nOf some world far from ours
\nWhere music and moonlight and feeling
\nAre one\n\n
