Original text and translations
English text
- Weep you no more, sad fountains;
- What need you flow so fast?
- Look how the snowy mountains
- Heav'n's sun doth gently waste.
- But my sun's heav'nly eyes
- View not your weeping
- That now lies sleeping,
- Softly, softly, now softly lies sleeping.
- Sleep is a reconciling,
- A rest that Peace begets.
- Doth not the sun rise smiling
- When fair at e'en he sets
- Rest you then, rest, sad eyes,
- Melt not in weeping
- while she lies sleeping,
- Softly, softly, now softly lies sleeping.
