Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
   Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
   Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
   Lull’d by the moonlight have all pass’d a way!
  
   Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
   List while I woo thee with soft melody;
   Gone are the eares of life’s busy throng,
   Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
   Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
  
   Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea
   Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie;
   Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
   Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.
  
   Beautiful dreamer, beam of my heart,
   E’en as the morn on the streamlet and sea:
   Then will the clouds of sorrow depart,
   Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
   Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
