Lyrics
(Melody by Felix Mendelssohn, Germany, Lyrics by Heinrich Heine, Translated by Harvey Worthington Loomis)
Softly courses through my soul,
Loveliest of chiming,
Float abroad, thou tiny song,
Wrought of springtime rhyming.
Onward speed thee to the house
Where the flowers are springing,
Then, if thou a rose should spy,
Greet her with thy singing.
