Dowland: Weep You No More, Sad Fountains |
Weep you no more, sad fountains: |
what need you flow so fast? |
look how the snowy mountains |
heaven’s sun doth gently waste. |
but my sun’s heavenly eyes |
view not your weeping. |
that now lies sleeping |
softly, now softly lies sleeping. |
Sleep is a reconciling, |
a rest that peace begets. |
doth not the sun rise smiling |
when fair at even he sets? |
rest you then, rest, sad eyes, |
melt not in weeping, |
while she lies sleeping |
softly, now softly lies sleeping. |
