Original text and translations
English text
- By Music, minds an equal temper know,
- Nor swell too high, nor sink too low.
- If in the breast tumultuous joys arise,
- Music her soft, assuasive voice applies;
- Or, when the soul is press'd with cares,
- Exalts her in enlivening airs.
- Warriors she fires with animated sounds;
- Pours balm into the bleeding lover's wounds;
- Melancholy lifts her head,
- Morpheus rouses from his bed,
- Sloth unfolds her arms and wakes,
- Listening Envy drops her snakes;
- Intestine war no more our passions wage,
- And giddy factions hear away their rage.
- Lyrics: Alexander Pope - Ode to Saint Cecelia's Day - (1708)
