Weep you no more, sad fountains;
Weep you no more, sad fountains;
  What need you flow so fast?
What need you flow so fast?
Look how the snowy mountains
Look how the snowy mountains
  Heaven's sun doth gently waste!
Heaven's sun doth gently waste!
But my sun's heavenly eyes,
But my sun's heavenly eyes,
  View not your weeping,
View not your weeping,
  That now lies sleeping
That now lies sleeping
  Softly, now softly lies
Softly, now softly lies
        Sleeping.
Sleeping.


Sleep is a reconciling,
Sleep is a reconciling,
  A rest that peace begets;
A rest that peace begets;
Doth not the sun rise smiling
Doth not the sun rise smiling
  When fair at even he sets?
When fair at even he sets?
Rest you then, sad eyes!
Rest you then, sad eyes!
  Melt not in weeping,
Melt not in weeping,
  While she lies sleeping,
While she lies sleeping,
  Softly, now softly lies
Softly, now softly lies
        Sleeping.}}
Sleeping.}}

Weep you no more, sad fountains;
 What need you flow so fast?
Look how the snowy mountains
 Heaven's sun doth gently waste!
But my sun's heavenly eyes,
 View not your weeping,
 That now lies sleeping
 Softly, now softly lies
 Sleeping.

Sleep is a reconciling,
 A rest that peace begets;
Doth not the sun rise smiling
 When fair at even he sets?
Rest you then, sad eyes!
 Melt not in weeping,
 While she lies sleeping,
 Softly, now softly lies
 Sleeping.
