When stars are in the quiet skies,
Then most I pine for thee;

Bend on me then thy tender eyes,
As stars look on the sea.

When Stars are in the quiet Skies.

The shooting stars attend thee;
And the elves also,
Whose little eyes glow
Like the sparks of fire, befriend thee.

The stars; or those sad eyes?
Which are more still and great:
Those brows; or the dark skies?

Pacific stars split round the skies,
What have I now to do with these
Who know the wonder of your eyes?

With that clear dusk of heaven that brings the thickest stars;
Winds take a pensive tone and stars a tender fire
And visions rise and change which kill me with desire.

Look down on yourselves from the stars, I cried,
look down on yourselves from the stars.
They heard me and lowered their eyes.
