Here's my quick and dirty version (by no means perfect either) for comparison

Gentle songs I sing to you by night-
Songs no mortal ear knows inklings of
Nor a star that stares down from its height
Nor the moon that swims the sky above.

Songs that none except the very heart
dreaming them can weep for as it hears,
Songs on which none but the burning smart
That devised them grows indulged in tears.

Gentle songs I sing to you by night,
In whose eyes I've felt my senses sink,
You, from whose deep well, too low for light,
My soul drank eternal longing's drink
