- How sweet the answer echo makes to music at night
- When rous'd by lute or horn, she wakes,
- and far away o'er lawns and lakes goes answ'ring light, :goes answ'ring light!
- How sweet the answer Echo makes to music at night,
- When, rous'd by lute or horn, she wakes,
- And, far away o'er lawns and lakes, goes answ'ring light, goes answ'ring light!
- Yet love hath echoes truer far, And far more sweet
- than e'er beneath the moonlight's star,
- Of horn or lute or soft guitar the songs repeat, the songs repeat.
- Yet love hath echoes truer far, and far more sweet,
- Than e'er beneath the moonlight's star,
- Of horn or lute or soft guitar the songs repeat, the songs repeat.
- 'Tis when the sigh in youth sincere and only then,
- The sigh that's breath'd for one to hear
- Is by that one, that only Dear, Breath'd back again, breath'd back again,
- 'Tis when the sigh in youth sincere, And only then,
- The sigh that's breath'd for one to hear
- Is by that one, that only Dear, is by that one that only Dear,
- Breath'd back, breath'd back again.
