Previous Alive, as the wind-harp Next


Alive, as the wind-harp, how lightly so-ever
If wooed by the Zephyr, to music will quiver,
Is woman to hope and to fear;
Ah, tender one! still at the shadow of grieving,
How quiver the chords - how thy bosom is heaving -
How trembles thy glance through the tear!
 
Friedrich Schiller, 1796
