{{Text|English|
When on my bed the moonlight falls,
I know that in thy place of rest
By that broad water of the west,
There comes a glory on the walls;


{{Text|English}}
Thy marble bright in dark appears,
As slowly steals a silver flame
Along the letters of thy name,
And o'er the number of thy years.


When on my bed the moonlight falls,<br>
The mystic glory swims away;
I know that in thy place of rest<br>
From off my bed the moonlight dies;
By that broad water of the west,<br>
And closing eaves of wearied eyes
There comes a glory on the walls;<br>
I sleep till dusk is dipt in gray:
<br>
Thy marble bright in dark appears,<br>
As slowly steals a silver flame<br>
Along the letters of thy name,<br>
And o'er the number of thy years.<br>
<br>
The mystic glory swims away;<br>
From off my bed the moonlight dies;<br>
And closing eaves of wearied eyes<br>
I sleep till dusk is dipt in gray:<br>
<br>
And then I know the mist is drawn<br>
A lucid veil from coast to coast,<br>
And in the dark church like a ghost<br>
Thy tablet glimmers to the dawn.<br>


And then I know the mist is drawn
A lucid veil from coast to coast,
And in the dark church like a ghost
Thy tablet glimmers to the dawn.}}

When on my bed the moonlight falls,
I know that in thy place of rest
By that broad water of the west,
There comes a glory on the walls;

Thy marble bright in dark appears,
As slowly steals a silver flame
Along the letters of thy name,
And o'er the number of thy years.

The mystic glory swims away;
From off my bed the moonlight dies;
And closing eaves of wearied eyes
I sleep till dusk is dipt in gray:

And then I know the mist is drawn
A lucid veil from coast to coast,
And in the dark church like a ghost
Thy tablet glimmers to the dawn.
