letra de the jasmine - george whitefield chadwick
the soft, warm night wind flutters
up from the dim lagoon
while the timorous shadows hide them
from the red new-risen moon;
the scent of the jasmine lingers
like a languorous pain divine
till the night-moth reels in its fragrance
drunken as if with wine
oh, jasmine fair;
oh, southern night most rare!
the warm air beats with passion
as some hot bosom throbs
while an amorous night-bird murmurs
as its bliss found vent in sobs;
the breath of the jasmine pulses
it comes and goes on the wind;
could one climb o’er its lattice
what bliss might he not find!
oh, jasminе blest;
what dreams of cradled rеst!
a spark from the cas-m-nt fl!ckers
and touches the jasmine’s bloom
till the blossoms glow like star gems
as they gleam in the fragrant gloom
i know not what breath from their chalice
has ‘stirred my soul like wine
till i reel like the drunken night-moth
with love’s keen pain divine
oh, jasmine sweet
why speeds the night so fleet?
