She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies
This is for you
This for me
For eternity
This is the sky
This is the sea
For eternity
One shade the more, one ray the less
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress
Or softly lightens over her face
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place
And on that cheek, and over that brow
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent
The smiles that win, the tints that glow
But tell of days in goodness spent
A mind at peace with all below
A heart whose love is innocent
