Heavenly music, gorgeous perfume,
Voices of night,
A silvery light
Chasing the gloom;
Soon a sweet picture comes into view,
And my heart is still
Before a thrill
I never knew!

I see two lovers on the moonlit sand,
Standing face to face,
And as he takes her little trembling hand,
They slowly embrace.

I see two lovers in a world apart,
Heart to heart, what bliss!
And in my loneliness, I see them start
One wonderful kiss.

I hear their song at the shrine of love,
The wine of love flows free.
Is there no voice in the spring of love
To sing of love with me?

I see two lovers while alone I stand,
By the sand and sea.
I wonder when I'll find the trembling hand
Fate intended for me.

I wonder when I'll find the trembling hand
Fate intended for me.
