Intérprete:

I stand at the gate, 

   
And the song that I sing is of moonlight;

    I stand and I wait 
                            
For the touch of your hand in the June night;

    The roses are sighing

 a moonlight serenade.



The stars are aglow, 
                  
And tonight how their light

 sets me dreaming.
    
My love, do you know 
                                 
That your eyes are like stars

 brightly beaming?
   
I bring you and sing you

a moonlight serenade.




Let us stray till the break of day

In love's valley of dreams,

     Just you and I, a summer sky,

A heavenly breeze kissing the trees.

So don't let me wait; 


Come to me tenderly  in  the June night,

    I stand at your gate 

       And I sing you a song in the moonlight;

   A love song, my darling,

a moonlight serenade.
