Is she asleep, asleep
Alone. in fair far land?
Lulled with the murmuring deep
And shadowy waters keep
Fast by the flower-lit strand,
Is she asleep, asleep?
If h awake, awake
On bliss-embowering shore,
Be sure her heart will break
For the old sad voices sake,
That reach to her no more.
If she must wake, must wake.
All! guard her dream, her dream,
Though songs call blithe n clear
About the enchanted stream;
Lest reft in soOth she seem
OF all she loves to hear,
Rest she adream, adream.
