Gentle zephyr

William Sterndale Bennett

Gentle Zephyr, as you fly,

If you kiss my fair one's ear,

Whisper soft that you're a sigh,

But from whose heart she must not hear.

Limpid rill, if e'er my love

Near thy gurgling runnel rove,

Murmur that from tears you rise,

But tell her not from whose sad eyes!
