As Notes...



Are we not formed, as notes of music are,
For one another, though dissimilar?
~Percy Bysshe Shelley



Art Childe Hassam~The Song>
On the playlist..Song to the Moon.
Translation lyrics

Silver moon upon the deep dark sky,
Through the vast night pierce your rays.
This sleeping world you wander by,
Smiling on man's homes and ways.
Oh moon ere past you glide, tell me,
Tell me, oh where does my loved one bide?
Oh moon ere past you glide, tell me
Tell me, oh where does my loved one bide?
Tell him, oh tell him, my silver moon,
Mine are the arms that shall hold him,
That between waking and sleeping he may
Think of the love that enfolds him,
May between waking and sleeping
Think of the love that enfolds him.
Light his path far away, light his path,
Tell him, oh tell him who does for him stay!
Human soul, should it dream of me, Let my memory wakened be.
Moon, moon, oh do not wane, do not wane,
Moon, oh moon, do not wane....

And thank you for visiting Dolly Bear! She will miss you, but she knows that when you come back, you will bring her Mozes and his magic wings! Have a magical joy ride with the music this weekend my friend. Anita

Dear Dutchess
Beautiful music and words... Lucia had a voice that touches your soul. I could sit here and listen all evening.
