O precious is the pause between the winds that come and go,
And sweet the silence of the shores between the ebb and flow.


Music and Moonlight (1874) - Barcarolle


O precious is the pause between the winds that come and go, And sweet the silence of the shores between the ebb and flow.

O precious is the pause between the winds that come and go, And sweet the silence of the shores between the ebb and flow.

O precious is the pause between the winds that come and go, And sweet the silence of the shores between the ebb and flow.

O precious is the pause between the winds that come and go, And sweet the silence of the shores between the ebb and flow.
