A Moonlight Song
Language: English
The moonlight shimmers thro' the vine That to my porch is clinging; The flowers lightly nod their heads, My love-filled heart is singing. The petals of the rose float by Like love, her kisses bringing; And all the night is glad to me, I hear thy dear voice ringing!
