O Music, sent down from celestial spheres,
Thou sound of heaven that soothest mortal ears,
To which a man might listen ev’ry day,
And, in so doing, waste his life away,
Fain would I hear thee!

O Music, thou that quellest human fears,
O thou, that bearest heaven to him that hears,
Thou sound divine, without which man is naught,
Expressive thou of ev’ry human thought,
Fain would I hear thee!

This poem is so sweet!

Short, yet precise and effective, you sum up the joy that music brings to us!

I like this very much!
