A heine love song

Eugene Field 1850 (St. Louis) – 1895 (Chicago)

The image of the moon at night
 All trembling in the ocean lies,
But she, with calm and steadfast light,
 Moves proudly through the radiant skies,

How like the tranquil moon thou art--
 Thou fairest flower of womankind!
And, look, within my fluttering heart
 Thy image trembling is enshrined!
