Lyrics: On wings of music roaming,
With thee, my loved one I glide,
Where the gay flowers are blooming,
On banks by the Ganges tide.
Oh, there in a garden of roses,
While moonbeams calmly shine,
The lotus flower uncloses,
Her eye to gaze on thine,
The lotus flower uncloses,
Her eye to gaze on thine.
Auf Flügen des Gesanges,
Herzliebchen trag ich dich fort,
Fort nach den Fluren des Ganges,
Dort weiß ich den schönsten Ort,
Dort leigt ein rotblühender Garten,
Im stillen Mondenschein,
Die Lotosblumen erwarten,
Ihr trautes Schwesterlein,
Die Lotosblumen erwarten,
Ihr trautes schwesterlein.
Reclining with thee while night gleams,
Under the spreading palms,
We woo the pow'r of bright dreams,
To shed their heav'nly charms,
To shed their heav'nly charms.
(To shed) their heav'nly charms.
