Summer Night
:)
from 'The Nights' - Barry Cornwall
Oh , the Summer Night
Has a smile of light,
And she sits on a sapphire throne;
Whilst the sweet Winds load her
With garlands of odour,
From the bud to the rose o'er-blown!
Ihave been looking for all the words to this poem over the years.My High School Choir sang this in many competitions. We called the song Song Of The Nights.
