Lyrics: Ossian (James MacPherson)

Pleasant be thy rest, O lovely beam!
Soon hast thou set on our hills, O Malvina.
But thou risest like the beam of the East
Among the spirit of thy friends
Where they sit in their stormy halls,
The chambers of the thunder.
Then come thou, O Malvina,
With all thy music come;
Lay Ossian in the plain of Lutha;
Let his tomb rise in the lovely field.
