LYRICAL INTERLUDE: 7 by HEINRICH HEINE

First Line: I'LL DIP MY SPIRIT DISCREETLY
Last Line: IN A WONDROUS MOMENT OF BLISS.
Subject(s): FLOWERS; KISSES; LILIES; SINGING & SINGERS; SONGS;

I'LL dip my spirit discreetly
In the cup of the lily down here;
The lily shall sing to me sweetly
A song of my mistress dear.

The song shall tremble and quiver,
Like that delicious kiss,
Of which her mouth was the giver
In a wondrous moment of bliss.
