Anne Hunter (1742-1821) text
To the Aeolian Harp
Language: English

Harp of the winds! In airy measure
Thy strings when viewless fingers move,
Unfolding all thy tuneful treasure,
Thy cadence wild I dearly love.

Refrain:
The sounds, all earthly sounds excelling,
Our wand'ring thoughts to heav'n recall;
Now softly sighing, loudly swelling,
Lost in many a dying fall.

Harp of the winds! While, pensive musing,
I mark thy deep impassion'd strain,
When trees their summer beauty losing,
With yellow leaves bestrew the plain.

(Refrain)

Harp of the winds! While, faintly beaming,
Yon moon hangs o'er the ruined tower,
And flitting shadows dimly gleaming,
Seem subject to thy magic power.





에올리언 하프(Aeolian harp)  
가는 허리에 여섯 개 이상의 현을 맨 악기로 그리스의 풍신
(風神) 아이올로스에서 유래한 것인데, 줄에 바람이 와서 닿으면
저절로 소리가 난다.
