O let me Music hear
Night and Day!
Let the voice and let the Lyre
Dissolve my heart, my spirit's fire;
Music and I ask no more
Night or Day!
Hence with colder world
Hence, Adieu!
Give me. Give me but the while
The brighter heav'n of Ellen's smile
Love and then I ask no more
Oh, would you?
Hence with this world of care
I say too;
Give me but the blissful dream
That mingles in the goblet's gleam
Wine and then I ask no more
What say you?
Music may gladden Wine
What say you?
Tendrils of the laughing Vine
Around the Myrtle well may twine
Both may grace the Lyre divine
What say you?
