O sweet fragrance

O redolence from fairytale times,

Bewitch again my senses!

A knavish swarm of silly pranks

Buzzes down the gentle breeze.

A happy impulse calls me back

To joys I have long neglected:

O redolence from fairytale times,

Bewitch me again!

All my ill humors I've renounced;

From my sun-framed window

I behold untrammeled the beloved world

And dream me out to blissful vistas...

O redolence from fairytale times.
