Castanet moore ks
gaily sound the castanet by thomas moore maltese air read for librivox dot org by kevin s gaily sounds the castanet beating time to bounding feet when after daylight's golden set maids and youth by moonlight meet oh then how sweet to move through all that maze of mirth led by light from eyes we love beyond all eyes on earth then the joyous banquet spread on the cool and fragrant ground with heaven's bright sparklers overhead and still brighter sparkling round oh then how sweet to say into some loved one's ear thoughts reserved through many a day to be thus whispered here when the dance and feast are done arm in arm as home we stray how sweet to see the dawning sun o'er her cheeks warm blushes play then too the farewell kiss the words whose parting tone lingers still in dreams of bliss that haunt young hearts alone end of poem this recording is in the public domain
