Dimbovitza
By Elisabeth, Queen of Roumania (Carmen Sylva) (1843–1916)
D
Silver-shining, memory-haunted;
He who drinks thy crystal waters
Ne’er can quit thy shores enchanted.
Drank I of thy flowing river;
For my love, my inmost being,
There meseems have sunk forever.
All my soul hast thou in keeping,
Since beneath thy banks of verdure
Lies my dearest treasure sleeping.
