stephen c. foster (1826-1864)
beautiful dreamer serenade
1beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
2starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
3sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
4lull’d by the moonlight have all p-ss’d a way!
5beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
6list while i woo thee with soft melody;
7gone are the cares of life’s busy throng, —
8beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
9beautiful dreamer awake unto me!
10beautiful dreamer, out on the sea
11mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie;
12over the streamlet vapors are borne,
13waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.
14beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart,
15e’en as the morn on the streamlet and sea;
16then will all clouds of sorrow depart, —
17beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
18beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
