A golden star unto heaven looks up,

As if seeking its kindred where bright they lie,

Set in the blue of the summer sky.

Come away! Under arching boughs we’ll float,

Making those urns each a fairy boat;

We’ll row them with reeds o’er the fountains free,

And a tall flag-leaf shall our streamer be;

And we’ll send out wild music so sweet and low,

It shall seem from the bright flower’s heart to flow,

As if ’twere a breeze with a flute’s low sigh,
