XC. “INTERRUPT” ME, LITTLE DARLING.
“Interrupt” me, little darling!
Ask the river freely flowing,
If the sunbeam or the zephyr
Interrupts it in its going.
Ask the river freely flowing,
If the sunbeam or the zephyr
Interrupts it in its going.
Like the light upon the ripple,
Like the south wind on the sea,
That bears the balm of flowers
On its wings, art thou to me.
Like the south wind on the sea,
That bears the balm of flowers
On its wings, art thou to me.
439
Ask the lute, that dreams of music,
If the tune disturbs its strings,
While it gives that dream imprison'd,
Only freedom and glad wings.
If the tune disturbs its strings,
While it gives that dream imprison'd,
Only freedom and glad wings.
“Interrupt” me, little fairy!
Ask the cloud that lures your eye,
If the morn's illumining beauty
Interrupts its floating by.
Ask the cloud that lures your eye,
If the morn's illumining beauty
Interrupts its floating by.
Like the rose Aurora gives it,
When it wanders by her bower,
Like all of light and love art thou
To me, my fairy flower.
When it wanders by her bower,
Like all of light and love art thou
To me, my fairy flower.
