Foster (1826-1864) Beautiful Dreamer Serenade 1Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me, 2Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee; 3Sounds of the rude world heard in the day, 4Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd a way! 5Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song, 6List while I woo thee with soft melody; 7Gone are the cares of life's busy throng, -- 8Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me! 9Beautiful dreamer awake unto me! 10Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea 11Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie; 12Over the streamlet vapors are borne, 13Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn. 14Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart, 15E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea; 16Then will all clouds of sorrow depart, -- 17Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me! 18Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Online text copyright © 2003, Ian Lancashire for the Department of English, University of Toronto.
