Original text and translations
English text
- Weep you no more, sad fountains;
- What need you flow so fast?
- Look how the snowy mountains
- Heaven's sun doth gently waste!
- But my sun's heavenly eyes
- View not your weeping,
- That now lies sleeping,
- Softly now, softly lies
- Sleeping.
- Sleep is a reconciling,
- A rest that peace begets;
- Doth not the sun rise smiling
- When fair at eve he sets?
- Rest you, then, rest, sad eyes!
- Melt not in weeping,
- While she lies sleeping,
- Softly now, softly lies
- Sleeping.
- Lyrics: Anonymous - 16th century
