¶Liedtext

:''On the death of a lady'' by Thomas Moore Sweet spirit! if thy airy sleep, Nor sees my tears, nor hears my sighs, Then will I weep, in anguish weep, Till the last heart's drop fills mine eyes. But if thy sainted soul can feel, And mingles in our misery; Then, then my breaking heart I'll seal, Thou shalt not hear one sigh from me. The beam of morn was on thy stream, But sullen clouds the day deform; Like thee was that young, orient beam, Like death, alas, that sullen storm! Thou wert not formed for living here, So linked thy soul was with the sky; Yet, ah, we held thee all so dear, We thought thou wert not formed to die.
