I dreamt a dream but when the night was young, And the moonlight sang lullabies,that doves- Fair-feathered slept to,while boughs at guard hung, Like a lover stands eyeing her, he loves. I dreamt a dream that I had discovered, In the most unexpected of places, In epiphanic manner uncovered, The true possessor of divine graces. There was a chant that I heard in the dream, That made me, unknowingly, pledge my soul; Thus, 'To thee,to thee' did I sing and scream, And woke up,as if released on parole. (Later.) Queen Mab,yet again blessed me at hour wee, And O, did I dream? And what did I see?

Liebestraum (A Poetical Sketch)
I dreamt a dream but when the night was young, And the moonlight sang lullabies,that doves- Fair-feathered slept to,while boughs at guard hung, Like a lover stands eyeing her, he loves. I dreamt a dream that I had discovered, In the most unexpected of places, In epiphanic manner uncovered, The true possessor of divine graces. There was a chant that I heard in the dream, That made me, unknowingly, pledge my soul; Thus, 'To thee,to thee' did I sing and scream, And woke up,as if released on parole. (Later.) Queen Mab,yet again blessed me at hour wee, And O, did I dream? And what did I see?
Liebestraum means 'Love Dream'. Inspired by Liebestraum No. 3 in A Flat Major by Liszt.
