Lyric Barcarolle

Night of stars, and night of love,
Fall gently o er the waters,
Heav n around below, above,
No more we ll heed the shore!
Floating thus in silver light,
Sing on! Oh earth s fair daughters
Love had ne er an hour so bright,
In fabled days of yore.
The cadenc d oar will rhyme
To the measure we sing,
Till even charmed Time,
Fold a moment his wing.
Wander on!
Till the dawn! Ah!
Night of stars, and night of love,
Fall gently o er the waters,
Heave n around below, above,
No more we ll heed the shore.
Night of stars and of love,
Ah! Gently fall o er the waters
Heave n around below, above!
Ah! Ah!
