Brightly the sun of summer shone,
Green fields and waving woods upon,
And soft winds wandered by;

Around, bright flowers of loveliest hue,
Allured the gazer's eye.

And called my willing soul away,
From earth, and air, and sky;

And soft winds wandered by;
Above, a sky of purest blue,
Around, bright flowers of loveliest hue,
Allured the gazer's eye.
But what were all these charms to me,
When one sweet breath of memory
Came gently wafting by?
I closed my eyes against the day,
And called my willing soul away,
From earth, and air, and sky;
