There be none of Beauty's daughters
:There be none of Beauty's daughters
With a magic like thee;
:With a magic like thee;
And like music on the waters
:And like music on the waters
Is thy sweet voice to me:
:Is thy sweet voice to me:
When, as if its sound were causing
:When, as if its sound were causing
The charmèd ocean's pausing,
:The charmèd ocean's pausing,
The waves lie still and gleaming,
:The waves lie still and gleaming,
And the lull'd winds seem dreaming:
:And the lull'd winds seem dreaming:
 
:And the midnight moon is weaving
:Her bright chain o'er the deep;
:Whose breast is gently heaving
:As an infant's asleep:
:So the spirit bows before thee,
:To listen and adore thee;
:With a full but soft emotion,
:Like the swell of Summer's ocean.


And the midnight moon is weaving
Her bright chain o'er the deep;
Whose breast is gently heaving
As an infant's asleep:
So the spirit bows before thee,
To listen and adore thee;
With a full but soft emotion,
Like the swell of Summer's ocean.

There be none of Beauty's daughters
With a magic like thee;
And like music on the waters
Is thy sweet voice to me:
When, as if its sound were causing
The charmèd ocean's pausing,
The waves lie still and gleaming,
And the lull'd winds seem dreaming:

And the midnight moon is weaving
Her bright chain o'er the deep;
Whose breast is gently heaving
As an infant's asleep:
So the spirit bows before thee,
To listen and adore thee;
With a full but soft emotion,
Like the swell of Summer's ocean.
