Lyrics

Strings in the earth and air
 Make music sweet;
Strings by the river where
 The willows meet.
There’s music along the river
 For Love wanders there,
Pale flowers on his mantle,
 Dark leaves on his hair.
All softly playing,
 With head to the music bent,
And fingers straying
 Upon an instrument.
Written by: Ernest John Moeran
