| Listen to the night, hearken to the silence
|
| The wind sings in fir-trees, forest’s music rings
|
| Rueful is the tune, wailful the soughing
|
| Soothing is the choir, murmur of the trees
|
| Time to forget all the heartache and pain
|
| Time to leave behind all the toil and travail
|
| Here where the water mirrors a still sky
|
| Here a fair place for a child to lie
|
| Under the woeful sky, moss-grown our bed tonight
|
| Here we sprawl in mellow darkness
|
| In warm caress of the night
|
| Far away from worlds betrayals
|
| Afar from all the Heavens might
|
| Better to dream, far sweeter to slumber
|
| Than face the cold days, bear the grim longing
|
| Time to rest a while, close the drowsy eyes
|
| Sleep till the dawn, till the bleak morning
|
| Heed not the rustle or hoots of the owl
|
| Heed not the ghosts that still dwell in the soul
|
| Night brings us solace and serenity deep
|
| Night brings at last neverending sleep
|
| Better it would be to sleep forever
|
| In silent shades of the evernight
|
| Sweet are the dreams in the groves of death
|
| Far away from the earthly woes
|
| Sound is the sleep under spruces boughs
|
| Serene are the dreams in the darkling shade
|
| Gone are the cares of the waking world
|
| Forgotten the sorrows of the weary heart |
