O MY flowers! On your bosom Sweet and pale the silver-cradled Night shall swoon away with love. On your carpet gay, of blossom Blue and gold, the softly-sandalled Breeze shall dance from noon to noon. O my flowers! At your coming All the earth glows into gladness, Dark and cloudy griefs remove. In my heart the wind is roaming Wild, the grass is parched with sadness.
