English text
There is music by the river,
And music by the sea,
And music in the waterfall
That is gushing glad and free.
There is music in the brooklet
That singeth all alone,
There is music in the fountain,
With its silver tinkling tone;
But the music of thy spirit
Is sweeter far to me
Than the melody of rivers,
Or the anthems of the sea.
Why should I dwell in silence,
When the music is so near,
That may overflow my spirit,
So full, so clear!
Oh, let me listen!
There is music in the forest,
A myriad-voicèd song;
And music on the mountains,
As the great winds rush along:
There is music in the gladness
Of morning's merry light,
And in silence of the noontide,
And in hush of starry night.
But a deeper, holier music
Is the music of thy soul,
And I think the angels listen
As its starry echoes roll.
Why should I dwell in silence,
When the music that is thine
May overflow my spirit,
And blend with mine!
Oh, let me listen!
