Barcarolle Lyrics

Barcarolle lyrics

Night of stars, and night of love,

Fall gently o'er the waters,

Heav'n around below, above,

No more we'll heed the shore!

Floating thus in silver light,

Sing on! Oh earth's fair daughters

Love had ne'er an hour so bright,

In fabled days of yore.

The
cadenc'd oar will rhyme

To the measure we sing,

Till even charmed
Time,

Fold a moment his wing.

Wander on!

Till the dawn!
Ah!

Night of stars, and night of love,

Fall gently o'er the
waters,

Heave'n around below, above,

No more we'll heed the
shore.

Night of stars and of love,

Ah! Gently fall o'er the
waters

Heave'n around below, above!

Ah! Ah!
