## The words

Moonbeam purest and serenest That from  
Heav’n’s pale vapour leanest,  
Shining earthward far away With thy lustrous  
silver ray, Shine on my beloved’s home,  
shine on my beloved’s home, Tell her,  
tell her swift as thee I come.  
Dawning sun, thou orb of wonder,  
Rolling sable clouds asunder,  
Shake the dun mist from thy brow,  
Rim with gold her dwelling now; Tell her,  
glorious messenger, tell her, glorious  
messenger, tell her how I haste to come to  
her.  
Night’s long journeyings are over,  
I am come to thee, dear lover, I am come,  
I am come to thee  
Here I wait at earliest dawn, ’Mid the roses  
on thy lawn, here I wait at earliest dawn ’mid  
the roses on thy lawn, here I wait ‘mid the  
roses.  
Open wide thy window, Sweet, open wide thy  
window, Sweet, Open wide, open wide!  
am kneeling at thy feet, I am kneeling at thy  
feet.
