Ode To Cynthia Lyrics - Mike Oldfield

Queen and huntress, chaste and fair, 

Now the sun is laid to sleep, 

Seated in thy silver chair, 

State in wonted manner keep. 

Earth, let not thy envious shade 

Dare itself to interpose; 

Cynthia's shining orb was made 

Heaven to cheer when day did close. 

Lay thy bow of pearl apart, 

And thy crystal-shining quiver, 

Give unto the flying hart 

Space to breathe, how short soever.

Hesperus entreats thy light, 

Goddess excellently bright. 

Bless us then with wished sight 

Thou that mak'st a day of night.
