Oh night, thy silver stars bewitch me;
Oh moon, I love thy tantilizing charm
And the soft warm breezes so inviting, --
Oh lovely night, so serene, so clam.

Oh lovely night, when I forget all else
And life is given just to love, it seems,
For on such nights I live as in a trance;
Such nights, I know, were made for love and dreams.

Oh lovely night that haunts my waking hours
And fills me with delight at thought of thee.
Oh lovely night, beneath thy starry bowers
I'll walk with love, and love will walk with me.

And the glimpse of heaven that we seeketh,
Oh lovely night, we'll find beneath thy skies
Where love shines forth in purity and sweetness
And love answers love, from love's own eyes.
