Música - A Dream Within A Dream

Propaganda. A "base de trabalho" é um poema de Edgar Allan Poe (1849)

All that we see or seem

Is but a dream within a dream

Take this kiss upon the brow

And in parting from you now

This much let me avow

You are not wrong who deemed

That my days have been a dream

Yet if hope has flown away

In a night, in a day, in a vision, or a memory

Is it therefore the less gone?

All that we see or seem

Is but a dream within a dream

I stand amid the roar

Of the surf tormented shore

And i hold within my hands

Grains of golden sand

How few yet how they creep

Through my fingers to the deep

While i weep, while i weep

Oh god can i not grasp them with a tighter clasp

Oh god can i not save one from the pitiless wave

Is all that we see or seem

But a dream within a dream
