At night when the lake is a mirror

and the moon rides the waves to the shore

a single soul sets his voice singing

content to be slightly forlorn

A song rises over the lilies

Sweeps high to clear over the reeds

and over the bulrushes' swaying

To pluck at a pair of heart strings

Two voices, now, they are singing

Then ten as the melody soars

Round the shimmering pond

all are joining in song

as it carries their reverie on

Over the treetops and mountains

Over the blackened ravines

Then softly it falls by house near a stream

and Over the Garden Wall…

To thee
