Original text and translations
- Music, when soft voices die,
- Vibrates in the memory.
- Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
- Life within the sense they quicken,
- Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
- are heaped, heaped for the beloved's bed;
- and so thy thoughts, when thou art gone.
- Love itself shall slumber, slumber,
- love itself shall slumber on,
- love itself shall slumber on.
Lyrics: Percy Bysshe Shelley
