Musician's or Publisher's Notes
Oh, when I sleep, approach my bed,
as Laura appeared to Petrach;
and as you pass, touch me with your breath...
at once my lips will part!
On my glum face, where perhaps
a dark dream has rested for too long a time,
let your gaze lift it like a star...
at once my dream will be radiant!
Then on my lips, where there flits a brilliance,
a flash of love that God has kept pure,
place a kiss,
and transform from angel into woman...
at once my soul will awaken!

Oh! quand je dors! (Oh, when I sleep!) Franz Liszt
Lyrics by Victor Hugo
Oh, when I sleep, approach my bed,
as Laura appeared to Petrach;
and as you pass, touch me with your breath...
at once my lips will part!
On my glum face, where perhaps
a dark dream has rested for too long a time,
let your gaze lift it like a star...
at once my dream will be radiant!
Then on my lips, where there flits a brilliance,
a flash of love that God has kept pure,
place a kiss,
and transform from angel into woman...
at once my soul will awaken!
